The Sinking of the Empress of Ireland – Ireland s Own

The Sinking of the Empress of Ireland Just two years after the world was shocked by the sinking of the Titanic, another passenger ship sank in Canadian waters with an even greater loss of life. The Empress of Ireland was the pride of the Canadian Pacific Steamship Company. Built in Glasgow, the Empress made its maiden voyage from Liverpool to Quebec in June of 1906. For the next eight years, it would safely carry tens of thousands of passengers across the Atlantic between Canada and the United Kingdom until the fateful night of May 29 when she foundered in only fourteen minutes. Of the 1,477 people on board, 1,012 died, making it the worst peacetime marine disaster in Canadian history, writes PAULA REDMOND
