Welcome Aboard!
The Canadian Forces (CF) welcomes you aboard HMCS Ville de Québec for an up close look at the power and pride of one of Canada’s magnificent frigates. Here you’ll get a glimpse at what life in the Navy is like.
While onboard, you will have the opportunity to speak with sailors, ask questions, and hear their heroic, heart-warming, and inspiring stories. You can tour the ship and even handle some of our sophisticated technology and equipment.
In the Navy, we work with some of the most complex gear and technologically advanced equipment out there. And we do it in some of the most fascinating places in the world. Our Navy is among the best; tonne-for-tonne and sailor-for-sailor, we are second to none. Our global standing reflects not only our current professionalism and dedication, but also the very hard work of the men and women who built the Navy we operate today.
Our Navy is made up of all types of Canadians –men and women like you who, through incredible training and job experience, have learned how to accomplish extraordinary things. Navy life is rigorous, but it is also rewarding. Now is your opportunity to speak to the sailors aboard the HMCS Ville de Québec. Their lives have been changed forever because of their experiences this past year off the coast of Somalia.
The Ville de Québec is staffed by an impressive crew of highly-trained personnel. Check out the different jobs on the ship by clicking on a link below.
