Newfoundland fish plant burns to the ground during storm

November 5, 2025

Steve Ryan watched his town’s main source of employment burn to the ground on Tuesday night as a powerful storm pounded the coasts of eastern Newfoundland.

The mayor of St. Mary’s was outside the burning fish plant for most of the night as waves slammed onto the shore, drenching the local firefighters. Sometimes, it was hard to stay standing in the rushing water, he said.

First Nations leaders say Ottawa’s latest budget keeps drinking water funding at levels that have already failed to end years of broken promises. Prime Minister Mark Carney’s first budget pledges $2.3-billion over three years to provide clean drinking water on First Nations, or around $777-million a year. That’s roughly equivalent to the $800-million a year over two years that former prime minister Justin Trudeau’s government promised in 2024.
