And now, the big list of effective large combatants from the Great White North.
This list includes a lot of cancelled vessels, mostly British but four American ships as well. I was inspired to follow the storyline often seen in the KanColle snippet files here concerning a sistership of HMS Hood being adopted by Canada, but chose the name HMCS Dominion in lieu of HMCS Canada. In addition, one of the cancelled Lion-class battleships also made it to Canada, being commissioned as NCSM Confederation.
I also, for those who might be interested in seeing them, included the eight magical battleships based on the Harry Potter universe that I've introduced in my stories, especially The Seventh Shipgirl and The End of the Circus, both of which can be read at my Fanfiction.net site.
Enjoy!
