Welcome to Land and Sea
After the Second War the military had to figure out how to get rid of tons of unused and unwanted weapons. At the time, according to conventional wisdom the easiest and most sensible way to achieve this was to dump the surplus into the ocean. That decision has now become the source of worry and frustration on Canada’s coast where huge dumpsites of both chemical weapons and explosives sit corroding on the ocean floor.
Land and Sea in the Maritimes and Land and Sea in Newfoundland have joined forces to bring you a united series of stories from Atlantic Canada.
For more than thirty years Land and Sea has brought you stories from people who live off the land and the sea. Today we cover issues that affect people in rural communities which ultimately affect those in cities as well.
We bring you stories from those who celebrate life living close to nature, who promote and protect their culture and traditional ways of doing things. There are stories of success and sometime failures that portray the unique way Atlantic Canadians deal with the challenges and pleasures of living on the east coast.
