In 2021, the situation had changed rather significantly: {{hms|Peregrine|DD-1291}} recomissioned in Toronto, Ontario as of early October, 2020, putting it within two hours' drive of {{hms|Hawk|CA-428}}. Further, due to the events of 2020, remote activities became the primary method of interaction for the members of most chapters, but especially these two. As a result, Sidemore Station was reinstated so as to aid the administrative tasks in maintaining and growing this connection.<ref name="ND21JA02">[[Naval Directive 21JA-02]]</ref> | In 2021, the situation had changed rather significantly: {{hms|Peregrine|DD-1291}} recomissioned in Toronto, Ontario as of early October, 2020, putting it within two hours' drive of {{hms|Hawk|CA-428}}.
