“I am honoured to have been invited by Commander Jon Nicholson, HMCS Harry DeWolfe, aboard this amazing Class-Artic/Offshore Patrol Ship as part of the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) Great Lake Sail Day. It was equally a privilege to sail with Her Command Team and crew.
“As the lead ship of its class of offshore patrol vessels, it was a thrill to experience the Navy at sea. This special outreach program was thoughtfully crafted to provide Her guests with a unique and unforgettable experience. This allowed the participants to gain a deeper understanding of the critical role the RCN plays in protecting and securing our nation.
“I would also like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Vice- Admiral Angus Topshee, Commander, RCN, for over twenty years of support excellence that had been provided to the Canadian and Allied Merchant Navy.”
