Cargo Ship Loses Containers in Northern Canada
November 1, 2023
Recovery operations are underway after a Canadian cargo ship lost about 20 containers overboard in northeastern Canada on Friday.
The cargo loss involved the M/V Sivumut operated by NEAS near the Port of Iqaluit, the capital city of Canada’s Nunavut territory. One person was reportedly recovered from the water and taken to the hospital with injuries.
Iqaluit is located on Frobisher Bay in southeastern Baffin Island.
The Government of Nunavut said the incident involved “a sealift barge.” The Canadian Coast Guard and NEAS were working to retrieve the containers, it said.

The Nunavut government and Canada are scrambling to deal with a potential environmental issue and boating hazard in the northernmost territory, a region located south of the Arctic Circle but with a polar climate and freezing cold for much of the year. Late on Friday afternoon, October 27, a cargo vessel that provides a vital supply line to the remote region had an accident losing a portion of its cargo into the harbor.
