HMCS Sackville is Canada’s oldest warship. This Naval Memorial and National Historic Site was a combat veteran of the Second World War. She is the last of Canada’s 123 corvettes, one of many convoy escort vessels built in Canada and the United Kingdom during the war. She played a pivotal role in winning the Battle of the Atlantic and holds a special place in Canadian naval history and heritage. Sackville has been restored to her war configuration and is home to exhibits and artefacts dedicated to the legacy of those who served at sea during the Battle of the Atlantic. The Canadian Naval Memorial Trust is a charitable, non-profit organization committed to preserving HMCS Sackville in perpetuity for the benefit of all Canadians. It’s made up of approximately 1,000 trustees (volunteer members) who generate revenue to maintain and operate the ship and to support numerous community and corporate events and activities. DND/RCN help by providing basic maintenance and other support services.
