N.S. fishermen ask judge to cut testing for Bay of Fundy tidal power project


A turbine for the Cape Sharp Tidal project is seen at the Pictou Shipyard in Pictou, N.S., in May 2016. A group of Nova Scotia fishermen will seek a court order to suspend the Cape Sharp Tidal project until a judge can review the case early next year. “That wasn’t a commitment that we got,” Sproul said, adding that the fishermen and Cape Sharp Tidal are still holding talks. Cape Sharp Tidal is a joint partnership between Halifax-based energy services company Emera Inc. and OpenHydro, a subsidiary of DCNS, a French conglomerate that specializes in naval defence and energy. Instead, he said his group just wants to make sure this project does not endanger the Bay of Fundy’s marine ecosystem.
