Canadian Merchant Navy
Canada, like several other Commonwealth nations, created the Canadian Merchant Navy (French: Marine marchande Canadienne) in a large-scale effort during World War II. A total of 12,000 men and women served in Canada's Merchant Navy. By war's end, 1,500 Canadians had died, including eight women.[1]
184 ships are involved in merchant shipping activity in the Canadian shipping industry.
