- Have you been wondering what it actually looks like inside HMCS Margaret Brooke, our newest addition to Canada's fleet? Sailor First Class Malabre takes you on a tour!
What questions do you have about living on a ship? Ask away in the comments!
I was in the forces over a decade ago. They definitely did things a lot differently back then. I like the new approach our military is taking to individuality and metal health.
Its not necessary to have all of the same policies that we used to have. Open mindedness is key.
Im going back in, very excited to potentially serve on the new Harry Dewolf class vessels.
Sooo cool that this was filmed at St Johns, Newfoundland port!!
Pretty cool. Good job.
Pimp my bunk HAHAHAHA! I miss the Army, we had some fun between the pain, I should have joined the Navy though!!!!
Dude is a natural
I enjoyed the quick view.....question, do you know if there are plans to have a full-time helicopter dedicated to each ship?
Helicopters and air detachments are assigned to ships depending on the requirements of the operation each ship is deployed on.
@@RCNMRC Thanks! Please keep publishing videos and tours, so enjoy your content.
I love the Harry Dewolf class so much!
I cannot understand why it doesn't have minimum two cannons and four heavy machine guns?
dumb
That's a nice government 4x4 office space.

You've got a SAFE SPACE that you call a "brave space"?
Did Trudeau add that ? Do you have a comfort puppy too?
Did I hurt your wittle feewings? 🤔
Someone's got a hate boner lol
Grow up dude, seriously how old are you lol 😆 😂?
Hey man, just because the earrings are a clear safety hazard when doing damage control drills/live action drills, or headdress when at general quarters...DOESN'T mean you can make fun of the lad!
*Bop ya on the nose & SHARP you!* ...did I just reveal how ancient I am?
Wonder if the forces gives sex changes to those who identify as female???
@@twocansams6335 I shit you not - decades before all this woke bulls*** even started - they did just that.
At the time it was called 'Gender Reassignment Therapy' and the individual who underwent the transition stayed in the military & became somewhat commonly known in CAF circles.
That was ages ago. I don't think the CAF would pay for something like that currently - who knows about the future tho
Yo, this is really cool, how do I sign up? I cant wait to join during this political climate of peace and stability!
Not sure if this is sarcastic or not...
But signing up because we are in a time (for a little while longer, anyway) of peace & security is NOT the right mindset to have.
Because when events happen & you are sent into a conflict zone, or a straight up warzone, it isn't peaceful anymore. And you have to be able to operate in that environment, because that's where patrol ships tend to spend a fair bit of their time.
(I'm not meaning to sound discouraging at all. Just keep in mind it is the Navy after all.)
Earrings?? That would not fly at old ROTC
Cool. Welcome to the 21st century.
Brave space? Earrings? No. Just no.
Giggling through the entire video😂😂
You should see the hair styles they allow now! CAF, RCMP, municipal police, cadets, 😮!
Why do you care? You've never served, and never will. Let others do the heavy lifting for ya, Champ.
@SeanCSHConsulting Settle down Son! Personal opinions are still not illegal yet.
nice ear rings
That's one word, Champ. Not that you'd ever serve.
Why can't the RCN develop a decent shade of sea haze paint that actually inhibits rust. That ship is brand new and it looks 10 years old already
The drains on the top deck take rusty water from seacans and other things and spill out the side holes those spots are not rusty themselves just accumulated on the paint. All ships do this.
What a bloody joke the Canadian forces
Cool story, ignoramus.
What the bloody hell is with the earrings!!! I'm glad I'm retired from the navy.
Right? I can imagine what my PO would have done were I to show up on duty sporting an earring, I'm guessing a trip to the sick bay to get my ears patched up would follow shortly thereafter. Nice enlisted quarters though, no three tiered bunks and 30 guys per mess on that ship.
@@Fred-vy1hm but wait, there's more...they have cappuccino machines in some of the compartments and Bridge. As for rings, l heard more than one tail of nipple rings becoming grenade rings too. Ouch. I don't mind the thought of an earring if you're a survivor of a sinking, as per tradition. I guess I'm just a dinosaur ex-PO now.
@@exJacktar well to be fair the coffee on board my ship was black and bitter enough to pass as espresso and we were the world's least expensive floating tavern which I hear they frown on these days but hey with the difficulties they're having filling recruitment quotas anymore I imagine allowances have to be made.
@@Fred-vy1hm yes, times have changed and the beer machines are down until port. They went that way not without reason
So are they.
, Canada’s navy makes the most comfortable offshore “cruise ships” with the best food and best exercise facilities for its sailors. That helicopter hanger looks like some people’s garages that have lots of junk but no cars in them. Good luck making room for a chopper when you suddenly have to.
The bridge is like a beautiful glass house conservatory. Unfortunately all that beautiful glass will be shattered and offer no protection when it tries to tackle any serious armed opposition and all the instruments in the bridge will then be at Arctic temperatures. I hope they have armoured steel shutters that can be quickly deployed. A 25mm gun is better than nothing but the main threat to Canada’s Arctic sovereignty is mostly from Russian and Chinese SUBMARINES, not lightly armed illegal fishing vessels and smugglers. So they also need more sophisticated submarine detection capabilities and heavy anti submarine weapons to deter submarines.
This Canadian Navy “cruise ship” is only good for controlling smugglers, fisheries protection and is also only rated PC5 suitable for light ice breaking when it needs to be PC4 or better for unrestricted year-round service. For instance the US Coast Guard Polar Security Cutter Program scheduled for service in the next 3 years will be PC2, plus are a lot more heavily armed and include an Aegis Combat System.
The woke Canadian government is trying to do too much with one class of patrol craft. This ship is mostly another “feel-good cosmetic”, make-work, “weaken the country”, Canadian woke government tax money boondoggle. I feel sorry for Canadian servicemen and servicewomen perennially being given tools more appropriate for fisheries protection rather than a naval vessel designed to enforce our national sovereignty rights. It’s like giving BB guns to the police to tackle armed gangs with.
lulz Another couch warrior.
They embark the helicopters as needed for deployments, as you can't legally do flight operations from pierside. The Harry DeWolf's can accept a Cyclone in the hangar and eventually we'll have 27 of them (currently its 25 as one has been lost already and 2 more of the original 28 ordered still haven't been delivered). The problem is the then Martin liberals back in 2005 didn't order enough to allow for attrition (or expect sikorsky to be so incompetent in delivering what was promised). The original number was based on the full hangar completement of all ships then in service, so 8 for the Iroquiois class DDGs (2 each), 12 for the Halifax class FFGs (1 each), and 4 for the AORs (2 each) plus 4 more for training duties on shore. Well the DDGs are gone, as are the AORs (though Asterix has hangar space for 2), and the HdW's are 1 each (for 6 total), but the two future berlin-variant replenishment ships and the future 15 Type 26 variant FFGs have the space for two each (which would combine for 40+ needed plus ones for training on shore). The USN in comparison currently has more than 500 SeaHawk helicopters to spread around roughly three hundred ships plus those needed on shore for training duties or undergoing maintenance.
Wtf is a sailor 1st class
Leading seaman
Omfg...
This is the new 'gender neutral' rank system, isn't it?
@@chrisburke624 The pussification of the Navy. I’m glad I got out when you could still drink in a mess!
@@onyourkilllist6880 Are they not allowed to drink in the mess anymore?
Goodness gracious, wtf...
I thought that only applied to specific ships for specific tours, when stuff got outta hand?? Is it really applied across the board now??
Can't drink? Its the f**king NAVY for crying out loud!
(I'm out now too, was Army. They can still drink 2 a day while on deployment 😉)
@@chrisburke624 nope, messes are dry now.
where the defensive weapons russians would laugh at it
Rus ships defend fish and clams
I definitely did not enjoy your tour, what happened to showing us the ship's weapons 😏??
Go back to World of Warships.
The principle weapon on this ship is a single M242 Bushmaster 25 mm (25×137mm) single-barrel chain-driven autocanon... The same as mounted on a US Army Bradley Fighting Vehicle.
