A postcard which has a picture of a CPR steamship which is black and white with two yellow and black funnels. The words Empress of Ireland 1914-2014 are underneath. At the other side there is a lighthouse and relevant places plotted on a map such as Pointe-au-Pere. Above that is a Canada Post stamp
Today is #WorldMaritimeDay and a great excuse to remember the #EmpressofIreland, the CPR liner that sank in 1914 and claimed four more passenger lives than the Titanic. There were 75 passengers onboard from BC - only 10 returned #shipwreck #beneathdarkwaters
