Protesters break into Muskrat Falls site

-

Nalcor Energy says around 50 protesters broke into the Muskrat Falls hydroelect­ric site in Labrador on Saturday. They were upset over Nalcor’s confirmati­on that methylmerc­ury levels will rise in the reservoir created by constructi­on of the project, raising health concerns. Protesters blocked access to the site over the week, despite a court injunction that led to nine arrests Monday.
