Royal Canadian Sea Cadets
The Cadet Program gives young people the chance to learn practical skills, grow in confidence and get ready for adult life. Our cadets take on experiences they won't find anywhere else while building leadership, citizenship and physical and mental fitness.
At 195 Bicknell, we're training tomorrow's leaders today, giving every cadet the tools to serve proudly as a Sea Cadet and as a member of the community.
