🌊 Battle of the Atlantic Ceremony
On May 1st, we mark the anniversary of the Battle of the Atlantic—the longest continuous campaign of the Second World War.
For Canada, this was a defining chapter. The Royal Canadian Navy grew from a small fleet into one of the largest in the world, escorting convoys across dangerous waters to keep vital supplies flowing to Europe. Alongside them, the Royal Canadian Air Force patrolled the skies, and the Canadian Merchant Navy carried the lifeline of a nation at war.
These were not easy crossings. The North Atlantic was unforgiving—cold, vast, and often deadly. Many Canadians never returned home.
Their courage ensured that hope, supplies, and support could reach those who needed it most.
We invite our community to gather in remembrance as we honour those who served and sacrificed at sea.
