I love Newfoundland. I’m a fisherman. I love the water. I love the freedom of our areas.”“It’s going to change our way of life," she said.
“We’re also very pleased that the injunction stays in place because that is paramount for keeping our people and the community safe. And that’s what this is all about. Nothing more than that, safety.”
