An American warship stuck in Montreal since Christmas Eve has finally resumed its trip to its home port in Florida, the U.S. Navy confirmed on Saturday.
The USS Little Rock was commissioned in Buffalo, N.Y., on Dec. 16 but was trapped by ice at the Port of Montreal less than two weeks into its maiden voyage.
A spokeswoman for the Navy said officials decided to wait until weather conditions improved before allowing the ship to continue its journey to Mayport, Fla., out of concern for the safety of the ship and crew.
Looks like they just made it out in time.

Meanwhile Climate Barbie has ‘no time’ for climate change deniers.

At least she is faithful to the church of Al Gore. Just have to peddle the AGW snake oil and save us with crushing taxes.
She doesn’t have time because she doesn’t need it. She knows the truth and the truth has set her free. She did the smart thing as a student and didn’t study science, thereby making her neutral and impartial, completely untainted by actual first-hand knowledge.
Wish you friggin Canadians would stop exporting your nasty polar vortexes. Trump needs to impose some weather tariffs. Pronto.
Don’t blame us, blame the Siberians. We are just letting the polar vortex pass through.
Shhh. don’t mention pass through. That’s what we do with Chinese steel products and the Donald is not pleased.
Don’t blame Canada. It’s the ruskies with the Siberian high.
Who needs poison nerve gas, when you command EXTREME Global Warmism?!
The Libs are weakening if Missus Climate Baby has to sound off about who SHE has ‘no time’ for. Let us hope Canadians have ‘no time’ for this bunch, come election time.
They won’t. All the Liberals have to do is to go to their prime ridings (i. e., southern Ontario, southern Quebec, and the Maritimes), dangle some sparkly trinkets in front of the voters, and the Grits will be in. The rest of the (post-national, sharia-compliant, Soros vassal) country will be irrelevant and will be openly treated as such after the election.
Inquiring minds want to know..Did the crew learn the Rodeo Song?
In French?
Did Canada ever build those new icebreakers,that Harper was on about?
Or did that contract get Liberalized as well?
Maybe we will buy a used one from the Australians, think of the “savings”.
Or will Irvine Shipping now get the contract to “build” a legacy at our expense in true Liberal fashion?
Mckenna is a fool! The Athropogenic crowd with their fraudulent science drives me to drink!!! Google “The Ship of Fools” stuck in the Arctic ice! For a back drop ,while reading the articles, put on Trooper’s great song “Santa Maria”! We might as well laugh at them!
There were some really lovely stories about American sailors from that ship volunteering in Montreal while they were here.

“SNOW BOMB! SNOW BOMB!
You’re my Snow Bomb!”
McKenna said the snow’d be gone!”
Another great ice fishing year.
Yay Manbearpig!
Oh no no no, those lovely French girls can speak English, just not to English speaking Quebeckers! However if you call or write the government, they don’t speak English at all!
