At the end of the Second World War, the Royal Canadian Navy knew it had to update its warships if it hoped to succeed in anti-submarine warfare.  Taking one of Alexander Graham Bell's clever inventions, researchers developed an innovative hydrofoil ship that could surf accross water at high speed to intercept any nuclear-powered submarine.  A change in defence policy forced the Bras d'or into retirement without ever having entered military service.
