Jody Thomas became the first female Commissioner of the CCG on January 2015. How do you edit the details in the overview box? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wjserson ( talk • contribs) 16:23, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
I noticed this is tagged as too long, and frankly I agree, but there's nothing in here justifying it or offering solutions.
I think personally that the seemingly endless lists make the page much too long and daunting, and could probably be split into separate articles ("Bases of the Canadian Coast Guard", "Ships of the Canadian Coast Guard", etc.). Other than that, the article doesn't seem too bad length-wise. --djbon2112 69.157.33.153 ( talk) 22:51, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
The section:
"During the mid-1980s at a time of increased nationalism following the blatant 1985 violation of Canadian sovereignty in the Northwest Passage by the USCGC Polar Sea, the Conservative administration of Brian Mulroney announced plans to build several enormous icebreakers, the Polar 8 class which would be used primarily for sovereignty patrols."
is written from a Canadian perspective. The United States has maintained for decades that the Northwest Passage is part of the "high seas" and should be treated as such - similar to the Strait of Gibraltar, the Danish Straits (some of which pass betwen only Danish territory), the English Channel, tte Corfu Channel, and the Straits of Malacca - open to free passage by all and not subject to control by one power.
I think this section should be written in more neutral language to reflect the existence of alternate points of view.
One possible might be: "During the mid-1980s, the long-standing but polite disagreement between the U.S. and Canada over the legal status of the Northwest Passage came to a head after the passage of the USCGC Polar Sea through the Passage in what were asserted by Canada to be Canadian waters and by the U.S. to be international waters. During the period of increased nationalism that followed this event, the Conservative administration of ...."

Most of the images on this article are from the DFO's Canadian Coast Guard web-site. The DFO allows their images to be re-used conditionally. The two conditions are:
Apparently, after internal discussion, it has been decided that the tags applied to these DFO images are no longer valid. Thos images may be deleted any time now.
Some other images were tagged as {PD-Self}. And another skeptical wikipedian accused the uploader of {copyvio}. Personally, I think the accuser went too far -- they accused the uploader without providing any substantiation.
So, is there another, newer tag, that would allow these images to be retained?
I used google to look for some images of CCG vessels and aircraft that would be tagged with {PD-USGov}. I found some, from joint operations. So, if those that we have been warned will be deleted are deleted, we won't be left without any images whatsoever. They aren't as good as the earlier images.
We should keep planning ahead, and looking for new images. -- Geo Swan 15:34, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
If everything goes according to plan these images will be deleted.
Here are the images with tags that have not been challenged
These two images look identical, but have different websites, with different liscenses, and different resolutions
I've exchanged some comments with a wikipedian who tagged most of the DFO images the CCG article were using with a tag that suggested they would soon be removed. I will regret the disappearance of those images. But I think the wikipedian who tagged them was correct,
Someone asked me if I thought we could find another liscence that those images could be classified, that would allow us to keep them.
Rather than putting my response on their talk page I thought I would respond here...
I have updated the Procurement section. I have inserted references that direct to the Canadian Public Works and Government Services page of the Canadian Government. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.12.69.183 ( talk) 13:50, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
G'day, I do a bit of work looking at articles with MILHIST banners, and am wondering on what basis this article is considered part of the wikiproject? The CCG appears to be a completely unarmed and civilian organisation. Could someone shed some light? Cheers, Peacemaker67 ( send... over) 09:08, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
