Show detail Hide detail

HMCS Donnacona : Montréal's Naval Reserve Division was organized in 1923 as a half company when the formation of the Royal Canadian Naval Volunteer Reserve was authorized by Parliament. Its strength grew steadily to the point where a second half company was formed, one for English-speaking personnel and the other for French-speaking. In 1933 they were amalgamated to form one full company, but later as recruiting expanded prior to the outbreak of World War II, the unit was again divided into French and English speaking divisions this time named HMCS Cartier and HMCS Montréal. In 1941 they were again amalgamated and two years later moved into the establishment at 2055 Drummond Street which was commissioned in October, 1943, as HMCS Donnacona. It has continued to function strongly since the end of the war and has trained thousand of naval reservists. In 1995 the Division's strength was 247 reservists. HMCS Donnacona website
