SEPTEMBER 22, 2000 No violence or confrontations occurred today in New Brunswick, as federal officials removed a total of 45 untagged lobster traps from the waters of Miramichi Bay. Although violence was feared, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans was able to remove the traps early this morning. The Burnt Church First Nation had advised members to stay off the waters and avoid confrontation. Get the Story:
