100thanniversary of the Canadian Navy (1910-2010)
A century of Service and Achievement
During the years following Confederation, Canada had little concern for the defence and security of its coastline. The resources of the British Royal Navy were deemed more than adequate, but by 1881 the Department of Marine and Fisheries was patrolling the east coast. Its fleet consisted of 32 vessels; eight of which were armed; some on occasion operating as bona fide warships.
Even as tensions between Britain and Germany grew at the beginning of the 20th century, the creation of a Canadian naval force was not a priority for all. Canadians were torn between an emerging nationalistic desire to avoid a distant conflict and a strong emotional attachment to Great Britain.
Then Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier struck acompromise between the opposing views. The Naval Service Act passed in 1910 promised a naval force and officers' training school as weel asfisheries protection, hydrographical surveys, tidal and current surveys, all supported by wireless service.
