HMCS CEDAR LAKE J484
Lake Class Minesweeper
These were copies of the Admiralty type, 126-foot wooden-hulled minesweepers, of which 24 were completed in east-coast yards for the RN. Of the 16 for which orders were placed by the RCN, only 10 were completed as warships, VJ-Day having intervened, and these were transferred to the USSR. The 3 on which work was stopped were completed for civilian use. The remaining 3 were apparently never begun. - "Ships of Canada's Naval Forces 1910-1981" by Ken Macpherson and John Burgess
