In mid-October, the @RCAF_ARC 19 Wing Comox tested a new Cormorant 909 helicopter hoist in Malaspina Strait, #BritishColumbia. Our Powell River crew was ready with the CCGS Cape Caution! 📷 Thanks to Michelle Pennell for the photos!

Versatile and ice-capable, it will support fisheries enforcement and surveillance missions on Canada’s east coast, including Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization patrols. Learn more: https://t.co/sXxdnhzbaC

Huge news out of @IrvingShipbuild! ❄🚢 We recently laid the keel for our second of two Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ships, the CCGS Sermilik!

Our staff Rhea and Chris represented us at the 2025 Kivalliq Trade Show in Rankin Inlet from September 22 to 24, and our booth was “knot” to be missed. We love talking about the work we do in #Nunavut – and of course, how Nunavummiut can join us: https://t.co/QOmovSXWrw

Built by @Seaspan in Vancouver and successfully completing its sea trials, this offshore oceanographic science vessel will soon support essential research and operations in Canada’s waters. Get all the details:

Science just got a new shipmate! 🧪⚓ Yesterday, we celebrated the acceptance of the newest addition to our fleet, the CCGS Naalak Nappaaluk! 🚢

Crews are completing shoreline assessments after each storm and removing debris when possible. One tar ball was found on Cedar Cove. A hull survey was conducted, and the results are still pending. This survey will inform of any major damage to the hull`s exterior.

T & T Salvage, the salvage contractors, are thoroughly assessing areas onboard the vessel. Damaged on-board equipment will be replaced as needed. Once the assessment is complete, the salvage company and MSC will evaluate requirements and determine next steps.

UPDATE – November 12 A crew boarded the vessel after the recent wind storm to assess its condition. Structural damage was visible in multiple areas, including below deck, in the framing and bulk heads, in the area of a water ballast tank.

Every November, we pause to recognize and honour all those who have served and continue to serve. On this Remembrance Day, we remember their sacrifices and thank them for their unwavering commitment to our country. @VeteransENG_CA #LestWeForget

The salvage crew is reporting some damage to equipment onboard the MSC Baltic III and some debris from the grounded vessel is seen in the water and on the shoreline.

There is significant movement in the bow and stern of the MSC Baltic III. There is a noticeable change in the condition of the port side of the vessel, but a detailed assessment has not yet been conducted due to ongoing severe weather conditions.

The Canadian Coast Guard continues to work closely with the response agency to prepare for a response, if needed, when weather and sea conditions allow.

#CCGLive: The MSC Baltic III is currently experiencing sustained, extreme wind and sea conditions. These conditions are preventing all on-water and shoreline operations. The Canadian Coast Guard remains onsite monitoring the MSC Baltic III from shoreside.

This Veterans’ Week, we honour those who serve and have served our country. Your unwavering dedication and courage inspire us today and every day. Take a moment to thank the veterans in your life for their service. 🤝🇨🇦

Big things are happening at @IrvingShipbuild! Our first Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ship is coming to life faster than ever. Each block moved is a step closer to a vessel designed to safeguard our waters, support science research, and respond to environmental emergencies.
