@AndyFillmoreHFX It is simple #BoycottWholeFoods. It is not about a policy. If the management does not understand that they should shut down in #Canada. #Halifax #WardenoftheNorth understands sacrifice better than most #Canadian urban centres. #LestweForget @JustinTrudeau #CanPoli

Change. Your. Policy.

#OceanNation It is not a bad look. It is disgraceful. #Canadians fought for our freedoms. This firm has no business operating in #Canada. Shut it down. Please boycott @WholeFoods #WestVancouver #ParkRoyal #Lestweforget #BoycottWholeFoods #Canpoli #BCPoli

Commander E.R. Mainguy, HMCS Ottawa's captain in 1940, died in 1979. Five years later, the Admiralty reassessed the action and awarded a decisive kill to Ottawa and Harvester. LAC MIKAN PA-104030.

This #container vessel is the Ever Summit. She falls under the Post Panamax container category with a #capacity of 5,620 #TEU. A Post Panamax is equivalent to two football fields and two ice hockey fields combined. Here, she was #spotted in West Vancouver, #Canada. #shipping

#Canada needs to understand #Submarines are a force multiplier. @RoyalCanNavy needs a robust #subsurface fleet. It is not a discussion. Other maritime nations and @Nato allies understand this.

@LeBrunJames81 Commander, I forgot to add in #NationalTreasure in the Tweet burst. To understand a complex asymmetrical global threat environment we need to understand #OceanNation's #marinehistory. As @greatbigseas has often ordered, "Maintain present speed and course".

Designed to identify a ship from a distance, it can be hard to appreciate just how huge naval flags were. The National Maritime Museum staff in this picture provide some scale

#OceanNation If you want to learn about #Canada rich and deep naval history follow @LeBrunJames81, a #Sailor #Historian. The @RoyalCanNavy is very lucky to have this #NavalOfficer who roams freely. @Comd_RCN @AngusTopshee, @CDS_Canada_CEMD, @HarjitSajjan keep this man tweeting.

Eighty years ago today, HMCS Ottawa, along with HMS Harvester, destroyed the Italian submarine Faa di Bruno in the North Atlantic. It was the first submarine sunk by the @RoyalCanNavy. Read about the battle in my recent essay in @MilHistNow 👇 #BOA75 #RCNavy #CanadaRemembers

To change crew in kite balloons was an interesting task in the First World War as this photo of a USN Sixth Battle Squadron battleship shows. Why bring the balloon down when you can send the crew up? #history
