This Canadian Town Stinks

A Newfoundland town is being tormented by the unbearable smell of seafood sauce left to ferment in large vats when a factory was abandoned more than a decade ago.

The owner abandoned the Atlantic Seafood Sauce Company Ltd. plant in St. Mary’s, N.L., after extended legal battles over food safety complaints.

Much of the sauce was never bottled or sold, and the mixture of capelin, herring, water and salt has been fermenting in the 147 vats since.

“It’s started to become unbearable … such a foul odour,” Deputy Mayor Steve Ryan said in an interview.

Each container can hold about 12,500 litres of sauce, which has largely solidified in the tanks and leaked onto the floor over the years.

Ryan said the drains were filled with concrete during a cleanup attempt two years ago and since then the liquid has been pooling on the floor, making the stench unbearable.

Ryan has been inside the derelict plant and said the putrid stench is impossible to describe.

“I can’t explain it,” Ryan said.

“If you were coming to go into this, I’d recommend that you don’t. I’d recommend that you bring two pairs of clothes. I’d recommend that you come in with a vehicle you don’t want to drive no more. Stuff like that.”

A playground and school are within a half-kilometre, Ryan said, and some residents live just a few hundred feet away.

  6. Twice the government got involved to put an end to the chicanery being done at the sauce factory. Twice things went to shit because of said government involvement. Now a problem exists and the town is left holding the bag for cleanup costs. Perhaps Twinkle Toes Trudeau would like a 200 pound cake of that fetid product dropped in his home and office.

  7. It sounds like this sauce could be utilized as a chemical deterrent against illegals in terrain that it would be costly or difficult to build a wall. Rural areas only of course. But I ain’t gonna transport it, that would be a good job for Pelosi or Schumer. They are experts at odiferous projects.

  9. India and China are the greatest polluters of the planet. Manson-Eyes Pied-Piper Occasional Cortex should organize her magical thinking hordes of Progressive followers to demonstrate in those countries and leave us the Hell alone.

  10. Hey, communists socialists toqueheads community organizers, here’s a suggestion: Offer the site, as is, with an irrevocable grant of sovereignty, to whoever wants the place. Their mess. Their cleanup. Their expense. No backsies — for the people that caused the problem, trying to loot harder, in the first place. (You might even be able to loot it, one last time, with an eBay auction.)
