Today, His Majesty's Canadian Ship (HMCS) Max Bernays arrived in its new homeport in Esquimalt, British Columbia.
As the first Harry DeWolf-class vessel to permanently join Canada's Pacific Fleet, this is a pivotal milestone in the expansion of the Royal Canadian Navy's Arctic and Offshore Patrol fleet.
The introduction of HMCS Max Bernays to Maritime Forces Pacific enhances the Royal Canadian Navy's ability to enforce sovereignty in Canada's western waters, and better meet future defence challenges in the North. These multifunctional ships will be at the core of an enhanced Arctic presence and will strategically complement the capabilities of our current and future warships through surveillance operations.
