HMCS Swift Current (pennant J254) was a Bangor-class minesweeper that served with the Royal Canadian Navy during the Second World War.

[2][5] Swift Current was equipped with SA and LL minesweeping gear for the detection of acoustic and magnetic naval mines.

[6] Arriving at Halifax, Nova Scotia on 24 November, the vessel was used as an anti-submarine warfare (ASW) training ship there until May 1942.

She remained as part of that unit until June when Swift Current joined Gaspé Force as a convoy escort in the Battle of the St.

[6] In September 1943, Swift Current was among the warships deployed as part of the Canadian force to break up Operation Kiebitz, the German plan to breakout prisoner of war U-boat captains from a camp in Canada.

[8] In November 1943, the minesweeper returned to Halifax Force and remained with the unit until undergoing a refit at Lunenburg, Nova Scotia in February 1944.

Reacquired by the Royal Canadian Navy in 1951 during the Korean War, the vessel was given the new hull number FSE 185 and re-designated a coastal escort.
