CANADIAN COASTAL FORCES TRUST

The Canadian Coastal Forces Trust preserves and celebrates the maritime heritage of Canada's naval history through exhibitions, educational programs, and archival work. Based in Toronto, the organization maintains a collection of artifacts, documents, and oral histories related to Canada's coastal defence forces, making these materials available to researchers, students, and the public. The trust operates a museum and gallery space where visitors can explore displays covering naval operations, vessel history, and the contributions of sailors and personnel across different eras. Through guided tours, lectures, and school programs, the trust connects Canadians to their naval past and fosters understanding of maritime culture. The organization works with veterans, historians, and collectors to acquire and preserve items of historical significance, ensuring that stories of coastal and naval service remain accessible to future generations.
