Video
taken 12 August 2012: Little Lake Doucette,
Municipality of Clare, Digby County.
Video starts
at the lake and follows a trail of run off
to a mink farm.
Residents on
the lake have placed a formal complaint
with NSE / DOA and action to ? remediate
the problem seems to have started they
say.

on the street says that Environment Staff
visited the mink farm on Friday past (Little
Lake Doucette) and recommended shutting the
farm down, but, guess who denied this
suggestion, correct the powers that be in
Halifax. Also, word has it that on Saturday
night and Sunday morning they were busily
trucking the manure from the farm, along the
Hectanooga road heading in the direction of
Salmon River. And where was this
product destined for?, God only
knows.
Traveler's
were treated, as I am lead to believe, to
the delightful smell of mink dung that had
leaked from the truck. Vehicles were said to
have attracted some of this manure leaving
their vehicle with a somewhat foul smell. Go
figure! Paul's
