N.L. protests: Fish harvesters block budget, judge grants province injunction

A protest in Newfoundland and Labrador on Wednesday descended into a chaotic confrontation between mounted police officers and fishers outside the legislature, halting the provincial government’s plans to present its latest budget. Premier Andrew Furey said he hopes the budget will instead be tabled Thursday, and his government secured an injunction against the protesters on Wednesday afternoon to help realize that goal — though protesters say they have no plans to let up.
