The dangerous business of Canada's dead ships
from This Matters · host Toronto Star
Guest: Moira Welsh, investigative reporter for the Star The case of the MV Miner is a siren call to the question of what happens to "dead ships" that come from Canada and the dire consequences of neglect. Nova Scotians know the story well after the giant vessel full of chemicals and fuel became adrift and ended up in a protected area. It took $20 million and four years to remove. What happens to the rest of Canada's "dead ships" that face a perilous journey across oceans? A Star investigation explains why a lack of oversight and big money has created an industry of potentially damaging and dangerous derelicts.
