The town of Shelburne, Nova Scotia, had the Farley Mowat docked there and sunk for many years. That has also since been corrected, but that was almost a decade of that vessel being parked at the wharf, blocking it from being truly used as the port that it should have been. I know that, when I testified here many years ago, the mayor of the town of Shelburne also spoke to the exact same issue. It's an open port. It's kind of a free-for-all. If it looks like there's dock space, they'll come up and park them there.
