The Royal Canadian Navy is showing off its newest Arctic and offshore patrol ship today.
HMCS Harry DeWolf is set to pull alongside the Burrard drydock pier in Vancouver at about 10 this morning.
The navy is encouraging the public to stop by to see the first vessel of its class as it remains berthed there until Sunday when it leaves for Esquimalt.
The DeWolf is nearly halfway through its maiden operational deployment, which included crossing through the Northwest Passage.
