Last Sunday, HMCS Fredericton with her 245 servicemen and women departed from Halifax for a six-month deployment to the Middle East. Fredericton will be integrated into Standing NATO Maritime Group One (SNMG1), which conducts counterterrorism and counterpiracy operations in the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. Canadian officials claim that these naval missions are a continuous imperative to maintaining good order on the sea and preserving regional stability in and around the Middle East.
