Canadian Coast Guard turns 50
CCG celebrates 50th Anniversary today.

I designed the logo.

I think everyone deserves to have new boats build for them when they turn 50!

Re: Canadian Coast Guard turns 50
Congratulations and happy birthday CCG!

Although I agree that the artwork is “nice”; I’d have preferred the two ships to be portrayed as navigating safely away from each other, rather than on a apparent collision course.

Otherwise, very nice work, Rick!

We can all sleep better, knowing these fine men and women are on watch.
We pray that GOD is on watch for them.

I didn't or would never put two ships on a collision course Gord. You know me better than that. It was an intern who thought she was a graphic artist who did that. I just did the logo.
