Excerpt #2:
The reasons for both the dearth of goodwill and Sheila’s arrest were likely the same. For the past few weeks the small community of Grand Bank had been aboil, first with rumours that the fish plant had been sold to new owners from Nova Scotia, and now that they would be dismantling the refrigeration equipment and shipping it to other plants they owned around the Maritimes. People knew what this meant: their fish plant was gone, and that part of their life in Grand Bank was over. It was never coming back.
This had led to escalating emotions and reactions from the locals who started with a community meeting that developed into a committee to try and save the fish plant. It continued with daily protests and then a call for what community activists were calling ‘direct action’ to block the fish plant gates to prevent New Wave Fisheries from moving the equipment to Lunenburg. That call had been answered swiftly, loudly, and in great numbers by local citizens who were gathering each morning at the entrance to stop any trucks with the equipment on board from leaving the fish plant.
