Notice:

The National Inventory of Canadian Military Memorials is a public, crowd-sourced registry that helps Canadians learn about memorials in their communities. Inclusion in the Inventory does not imply VAC ownership or authority. Responsibility for the care, management, and any changes to a memorial rests with its owning or governing organization.

On June 11, 1989, Lieutenant Governor Lincoln Alexander unveiled a cairn in Tannery Park dedicated to the Officers and Crew of HMCS OAKVILLE.  On May 14, 2016, the Town of Oakville added the HMCS Oakville Plaque in Tannery Park.
