"The Rock": Newfoundland, Canada

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : At the easternmost end of Canada is its Newfoundland province. The province is comprised of two areas: the island of Newfoundland and the Labrador region of the Canadian mainland to its west. Gtingle used a drone to create this aerial video shot in the winter of 2017, when ice freeze caused great disruption to the province's critical fishing industry. The province and its relationship with the sea were memorably covered by E. Annie Proulx's 1992 Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Shipping News.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

Newfoundland, Canada has been experiencing its worst case of sea ice in over a decade. This broken collection of small icebergs are choking the small fishing villages along the north east coast of the island and causing their main industry (fishing) to be temporarily halted. An especially difficult beginning to a season which had so much promise given the unprecedented price of crab.
