Homeowners living in Penobsquis are filing a claim against PotashCorp Inc. after mining activities affected their water quality and health. Residents say blasting created cracks in the ground that led to dirty water or no water altogether.
With 60 wells lost in the area, over 200 people have been affected. Spokesperson Beth Nixon says they respect that PotashCorp has the right to mine, but the community wants to make sure mining companies are held accountable for the damage they cause.
