The 100th anniversary of the arrival of HMCS Niobe in Canada, as well as the reopening of the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic’s Navy Galley, were marked October 21 in Halifax.
As the first ship in the Canadian Navy, Niobe ushered in a new age during which “Canada joined the naval powers of the world,” according to Dan Conlin, the museum’s curator of marine history.
