We. Are. Watching. 👀
During two recent High North patrols, SNMG1 demonstrated active presence:
• HMCS St. John’s shadowed the Russian Udaloy-class destroyer RFS Severomorsk;
• Helicopter from HMCS St. John’s supported the Norwegian Navy during the monitoring of Russian research vessel Yantar.

NATO’s Standing Naval Forces remain vigilant, professional, and ready — maintaining awareness and ensuring safety across the High North.

It’s important to get a little fresh air.
Sometimes the best way for @RoyalCanNavy Clearance Divers to dispose of sea mines is to insert at the disposal site from the air.

Fair winds and following seas! ⚓ #HMCSMargaretBrooke departed #Halifax for a 6-week deployment on #OpCaribbe. Led by the US, this is Canada's contribution to the enhanced counter-narcotics operations in the Caribbean, strengthening safety and security.
