8 Jun 2017 – “Unusually heavy Arctic pack ice has trapped multiple vessels, stymied the fishing season and triggered a high-stakes rescue operation from a sinking ship off Newfoundland,” says an article on CTV Coast Atlantic.

The heavy ice is more than two meters thick in some areas off the province’s northeast coast.
