		The sole remaining aircraft carrier, HMCS Bonaventure, was nearing the end of her service life, being a World War II-era vessel.
		The investigation focused on two hatches that were left open during repairs, thus allowing seawater inside while the submarine was on the surface in a period of rough weather, as well as faulty insulation for wires and a panel near the commanding officer\'s cabin.
		The remaining two supply ships, HMCS Preserver and HMCS Protecteur, were showing their age, and MARCOM began studies into designing a new class of underway-replenishment and naval sealift-capable vessels.

		Earlier, in April, I asked the minister of public works to respect the lower bid of the Davie Industries, even though the company was under the protection of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act.
		The minister of public works has allowed the repairs to the frigate HMCS Ville de Québec to take place in the dry dock, which is unofficially under the administration of Davie.
		Under the present circumstances, it would be inconceivable that Davie not be able to use it to repair the frigate HMCS Ville de Québec and other work, when a vessel is being repaired for the department of public works, for the federal government.

		The navy's sole aircraft carrier HMCS Bonaventure was nearing the end of its service life, being a World War II-era vessel.
		MARCOM hurriedly modernized and deployed HMCS Terra Nova, a Restigouche-class destroyer-escort, along with HMCS Athabaskan and the supply ship HMCS Protecteur to the Persian Gulf in support of Operation Desert Shield and later Operation Desert Storm where these vessels were involved in escort duties of various coalition naval forces and non-combatants.
		In addition to supporting naval operations, the new ships will together be able to transport an army battle group, a capability Canada's navy has lacked since the departure of the light-carrier HMCS Magnificent in the late 1950s when she was used as a transport during the Suez Crisis.

		Within the past few months I have been fortunate enough to acquire a half dozen of the L'Arsenal kits and I intend to do an infrequent series of articles on converting them to the various 'typical' configurations that they could be seen in during the Second World War.
		Built by Davie Shipbuilding Co. Ltd in Lauzon Quebec, Snowberry was originally intended for the Royal Navy, and as such she is in typical RN, rather than RCN fit.
		The main differences between RN and RCN Flowers was in the location of the galley - originally right aft in RN ships, later in front of the funnel and behind and below the bridge in RCN, and the location of the 2pdr bandstand.
