	HMCS Bonaventure
		The HMCS Bonaventure was acquired in the early 1950's by the Royal Canadian Navy[?], which was looking to replace its aging WW2-vintage light carriers[?] (HMCS Magnificent[?] and HMCS Warrior[?]) which were deemed too small and slow for the jet age.
		Several surplus US and UK ships were considered, and the then-mothballed[?] HMS Powerful[?] Majestic Class[?] light fleet carrier was purchased in 1952 from the Royal Navy on the condition that it be refitted with a then novel angled flightdeck[?] and steam catapult[?].
		The HMCS Bonaventure - named after an island bird sanctuary in the Gulf of St. Lawrence - was commissioned into the Canadian Navy on January 17, 1957, upon completion of its refit and modernization.

		WARRIOR was finally commissioned at Belfast on January 24, 1946, arriving at Halifax on March 31 with the Seafires and Fireflies of 803 and 825 Squadrons.

		A planned transfer of two aircraft carriers from the RN, HMCS Warrior and HMCS Magnificent, was slowed, and when Warrior was found to be unsuitable for a North Atlantic winter, she was sent to the west coast and next year was replaced by Magnificent, with the Warrior being given back.
		Canada still had two heavy cruisers, HMCS Ontario and HMCS Uganda, a number of Tribal class and other destroyers, and a mass of frigates, corvettes, and other ships, the majority of which were mothballed by 1947.
		HMCS Ontario and HMCS Quebec (formerly HMCS Uganda) were scrapped, and Magnificent was paid off, to be replaced by HMCS Bonaventure, a more modern aircraft carrier.
