@TSWBoaterInfo the website says Burleigh Falls is open, but twitter said it’s closed due to power. Any update?

@TSWBoaterInfo any update on the status of Lock 30?

Today, Cmdre Bradley Peats of the @RoyalCanNavy transferred command of @COM_SNMG1 to the Royal Netherlands Navy. Cmdre Peats commanded SNMG1 over the past 12 months on #OpREASSURANCE, part of Canada’s contribution to #NATO’s collective defence in solidarity with its allies.

@VeteransENG_CA @RoyalCanNavy Rest In Peace friend. It was an honour to serve with you.

[Veterans Affairs CA @VeteransENG_CA]

Today we remember Lieutenant (N) Andrew Webster.

He served in the navy for 15 years. Sadly, he died suddenly on January 2, 2014, while deployed to the Indian Ocean aboard HMCS Toronto.

Damage Control is a vital skill set that the RCN focuses on regularly. The benefits of that focus were clear this year when HMCS FREDERICTON had to extinguish a fire in the Engine Room while deployed of the coast of Norway with NATO. Thanks to NAC.

@erinotoole @HMCSFredericton Thank you Sir. We are safe and the crew performed admirably. FREDERICTON SENDS

[VAdm/Vam Angus Topshee @Comd_RCN]

A terrible moment for any ship's company. The immediate action taken by all serving in #Freddie prevented any harm or injury to our sailors.

[Karly @karliaa_b]

One of the coolest things I've had a chance to do this summer was catch @HMCSFredericton sailing through the narrows into St. John's harbour. I've wanted to get a navy ship in the narrows for a long time, and this summer I managed to get three! @RoyalCanNavy @RCN_MARLANT #RCNavy
