St. Lawrence drilling plan draws opposition
A young oil company called Corridore Resourcs is preparing to launch a oil and gas exploration off the gulf of St. Lawrence. This Halifax based oil company is facing a lot of criticism and concerns from fishermen, environmentalists and the Quebec government. There are fears of that if they find oil and gas in this largely unexplored area of the gulf that it will attract a lot of other companies that will explore the waters, and that it will harm the fish, whales, and other marine life. The Canada-Newfoundland and Labrador petroleum board is most likely to vote in favor of Corridors request to survey the Marine life and sea floor before they can start drilling.
