This would be the ship, in honour of which the 20th Halton Infantry Regimental Band (predecessor to the Lorne Scots), now known as the Oakville Wind Orchestra, first performed on the date of her launch - Dominion Day - the very first "Canada Day".

There is a photograph of the band as of that date on the OWO web site at http://www.owo.ca/historyofowo.shtml
