Canada’s Flowers - History of Corvettes of Canada 1939-1945
type: Product
description: For the British and Allied navies, the corvette, however useful, was a stop-gap, a “hostilities only” expedient useed to fill out the escort forces worn desperately then by the wartime attrition of the traditional destroyer flotillas. But for Canada, the corvette assumed an infinitely greater signifignance. It was the first warship the country had ever built in numbers; with the corvette, Canadian shipbuilding established itself, so that at thge wars end a complex of shipyards had been founded on each coast, as well had a resevoir of skills and expertise been established which would become the basis for the Canadian naval industry.
