Four Canadian ships heading to Gulf
foreign trash contributing to relief efforts ....
Quote:
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia - Three Canadian warships and a coast guard vessel are being packed with relief supplies and will head toward Louisiana to aid hurricane relief efforts there, the defense minister said Friday.
The ships, which will carry 1,000 personnel, were to depart from Halifax on Tuesday and arrive in the Gulf area three or four days later.
Organizers of the mission, dubbed Operation Union, were still compiling a list of what is needed. They expect to provide humanitarian aid, along with divers and engineering expertise for reconstruction.
Three Sea King helicopters will also be sent to ferry personnel into the devastated areas.
"A coordinated response is being prepared," Defense Minister Bill Graham said. "We made it clear that if military assets are needed, we will make available whatever is requested."
