RMS Empress of Canada (1960)

RMS ''Empress of Canada'' was an ocean liner built in 1961 by Vickers-Armstrongs, Walker-on-Tyne, England for Canadian Pacific Steamships Ltd.. This ship, the third CP vessel to be named ''Empress of Canada'', regularly traversed the transatlantic route between Liverpool and Canada for the next decade. Although Canadian Pacific Railways was incorporated in Canada, the Atlantic (and pre-war Pacific) liners were owned and operated by the British registered subsidiary Canadian Pacific Steamships Ltd. and were always British flagged and manned and therefore ''Empress of Canada'' was not the flagship of the Canadian Merchant Marine.
==History==
''Empress of Canada'' was planned for the transatlantic route from Liverpool to Canada for the Canadian Pacific Line. She was a slightly enlarged sister ship and running mate for ''Empress of Britain'' and ''Empress of England'' on the route from Liverpool to Montreal. During the months that the St. Lawrence was frozen (typically November to April) the ships sailed from Liverpool To St. John, New Brunswick. However, ''Empress of Canada'' was designed to be Canadian Pacific's premier cruise ship during the winter months and rarely sailed on the liner service in winter.
She had a gross tonnage of 27,284 () with a length of and a beam of . She was longer than her immediate predecessors due to a more curved bow and she had more beam. Unlike her earlier sisters, she had a bulbous bow. She was powered by 3 Foster Wheeler boilers feeding steam to two Pametrada double reduction geared turbines, one for each of her two screws. Designed for a service speed of , she achieved on her trials. She had accommodation for 192 first class passengers and 856 tourist class, with all first class cabins and 70% of tourist class having private facilities. During her cruise seasons, she operated as a one class ship.
The order for the vessel was signed in 1958 with the Vickers-Armstrong yard in Walker on Tyne in England, which had built ''Empress of England'' on the same slip four years previously. Her keel was laid in January 1959, she was launched on 10 May 1960 and entered service in 1961.
