Canadian Miner (scrap name Miner)

[stantheman]

Does anyone have any new information on this vessel? The last I heard was that the New York firm that was to remove the wreck gave up and went home because of some dispute with The Province of Nova  ???Scotia. It appears the wreck is still in place in Nova Scotia. Are there any new plans to remove the wreck?
