An equipment failure killed market-ready Atlantic salmon worth $5 million at Sustainable Blue's RAS facility in Nova Scotia. The company will be unable to supply fish to customers until June 2024, according to local media reports.

Land-based salmon farming company Sustainable Blue has had a disastrous November, losing 100,000 of its market-ready fish due to an equipment failure, a CBC News report has revealed.
