Good Morning #Canada
THE CGS Stanley (CGS = Canadian Government Ship) was Canada's 1st #Icebreaker , launched in 1888. But the 1st #CCGS Icebreaker was the 96m John A. Macdonald, a heavy icebreaker launched in 1960 and transferred in 1962 into the newly created Canadian Coast Guard. It remained in service until being decommissioned in 1991. Here's some vintage video of the ship from March 1961.#CanadaIsAwesome #CCG_Week #History

The Federal Minister of Public Safety has responsibility for the National Search and Rescue Program and coordination of #SAR policy with all agencies that deliver those services. The #CCGS reports into the Department of National Defence but follows federal guidelines when coordination is needed. On their own the #CCGS rescues an average of 12 to 15 people a day across the country. -

I have some local #History for you today. OTD in 1861, the Emily May steamship was launched from the shipyard at #BelleEwart. She was a side-wheeler, measuring 47m ) in length by 7.3 in width, capable of sustained speeds of 35 km/h. The Emily May steamed around Lake Simcoe for two decades, connecting the railway station at Belle Ewart to towns around the lake. Sadly in 1882 she caught fire while anchored in Belle Ewart.#CanadaIsAwesome

Good Morning #Canada
Canadians should reflect back on the glorious past few weeks and the excitement provided by the Toronto #BlueJays. A team not expected to contend for any title when the season began, they surprised the experts, the fans, and the teams that stood in their way. Some Canadians had flashbacks to previous World's Series Championships, some younger fans built their own memories, and millions jumped on board the bandwagon. We celebrated every pitch, every swing of the bat, every win that brought us closer to a championship, and each other. If you can't change the situation you're in - or the final score in a game 7 - you can always change your perspective. Don't be sad for our Blue Jays. Remember the joy they brought us individually and collectively. -

Good Morning #Canada
October 20th, 1992, is a history making day for Major League Baseball. The 1st World Series game is played outside the United States at the Skydome in Toronto. Home town Blue Jays put the chop on the Atlanta Braves 3-2 in Game 3, taking the series lead, 2 games to 1.
BTW - One of the highlights of my #BlueJays memories was Game 4. I was in the stands, Level 500 on the 3rd base side, when Jimmy Key shut down the Braves over 7 innings. The atmosphere was electric that entire day, from walking through the pregame crowds on Front Street to cheering every pitch during the game. I don't remember much about the drive home, just that it was slow making my way through a sea of honking vehicles.#CanadaIsAwesome #LetsGoBlueJays
