== History ==
''Oriole'' was originally laid down as ''Oriole IV'', the successor in a line of vessels named ''Oriole'' that were in service as the flagships for the Royal Canadian Yacht Club of Toronto, Ontario. Work was stopped on her construction due to a strike, but the vessel was taken to Neponset, Massachusetts where she was completed. The ship was launched in June 1921.〔
During the Second World War she was chartered by the Royal Canadian Navy as a training vessel. Following the war the ship was returned to the Navy League, she was again chartered by the Navy as a new recruit training vessel in 1950.〔 ''Oriole IV'' subsequently moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia, in 1951. She was officially commissioned HMCS ''Oriole'' 19 June 1952, and two years later the navy moved her to CFB Esquimalt to become a training vessel to the Naval Officer Training Centre. In 1956 she was purchased outright and attached to at Esquimalt.〔
