Photograph of the HMCS Stettler on a trip to Kitimat, and surrounding coastal areas. Likely the 1956 trip that brought the Navy and was invited to stay for the 1956 Remembrance Day service. This would have been the ship's second trip to Kitimat. The ship was a frigate that served the Royal Canadian Navy during the Second World War. Mike Kinnear seems to have taken a trip with them, and taken various photos along their route. Photos include the white ensign flag, a sign with the name of the ship, a 2 in a maple leaf, views of the ship and crew on board, landscapes viewed from the ship, and lifeboats.
From the years 1953-1958, Mike Kinnear took photos during his school years, until graduation, while working for Fred Ryan Ltd. after school and holidays. Photos for him was a hobby, and he took many photos of the smelter and townsite as it grew around him. Mike also took a number of photos for the Kitimat Northern Sentinel, during the Ken Brumley and Pixie Meldrum years as editors. Mike and his family left Kitimat in 1958, but he spent the best part of 40 years in the photographic field, mainly in the retail/wholesale part of the photo industry.
