A short history of the ship, the ship’s badge, battle of honours and the Canadian Naval Centennial identifier have all been include in the presentation suitable for permanent display. These presentations will be placed in city halls, community centres, theatres and museums across Canada in commemoration of the Royal Canadian Navy during its Centennial recognition.
