Traffic Slows at Trans Canada Highway

Monday, February 7, 2005
At 5:00 AM a motorcade of some fifty vehicles left Harbour Breton for the Trans Canada Highway to protest the closure of the local fish plant and to bring the seriousness of the issue back to the provincial forefront.
 

Nearly 300 plant workers and supporters braved the cold temperatures and took part in Protest, slowing traffic for nearly 2 hours. The purpose of the protest was to ensure that the challenges being faced by the community are front and centre in the minds of our politicians and that their efforts need to now focus on assisting the community find a solution.
