Episode Details

Canada’s submarine force is making waves — literally — as HMCS Corner Brook sank a decommissioned U.S. warship in a high-stakes SINKEX during the Rim of the Pacific exercise. For many crew members, including the skipper, it was their first live torpedo launch. This bold move comes as Canada prepares to replace its aging subs with twelve new German vessels — but a critical shortage of trained submariners threatens the mission. With longer training cycles and growing demand, the navy is turning to global partnerships and recruitment drives to build a future-ready fleet. The skipper calls submariner life “meaningful and challenging,” highlighting the deep accountability and camaraderie that define the role — a career path designed to inspire the next generation of naval heroes.
