HMCS Haida, Canada’s most famous warship, saw distinguished service with the Royal Canadian Navy in World War II, the Korean conflict and the Cold War. Decommissioned in 1963, she was designated as a national historic site in 1984 because of her role in naval combat and because she is the last of the Tribal class destroyers once used by three navies. THE VISION In 2020, HMCS Haida is managed and pre- sented as a living, operating ship. Visitors enjoy the unique opportunity to explore, discover, experience, and learn about the inner workings of and life aboard a World War II–era naval vessel.
