(John Rafferty photo)John Rafferty is back from being at-sea.
The Thunder Bay-Rainy River MP spent the weekend aboard HMCS Ville de Quebec as part of a program offered to federally elected representatives.
"It certainly opened my eyes what the Canadian navy does," says Rafferty. "It certainly opened my eyes to life on a frigate. And it opened my eyes to the sorts of Canadians who are involved with the Navy and what they have to do."
Rafferty says much of time was spent on manoeuvres in the Atlantic off the coast of Nova Scotia.
