Significant protests in October were in opposition to the flooding of the Muskrat Falls reservoir due to environmental concerns.

According to a study conducted by researchers from Harvard University, the flooding could increase the potential for methylmercury contamination in traditional food sources like fish and seal downstream in Lake Melville.
