You can also try it as ''Day-Gang-Yay''. Gives it the true French Canadian pronounciation ;-)

If you look at the Ottawa CTV page (at least the one Google found for me), it shows the BBC Steinhoeft in March 2011.

As Ron reported on the 14th, she sheered hard to port 0.1 nm above the bridge. If you look at the Ottawa CTV url, you can see her aground in the Beauharnois canal, completely blocking the canal, approximately 3 years ago. The Ocean Georgie Bain and the WN Toulan have both left the area.

Is there any indication that she lost steering control?

CTV news at supper time said pig iron, crew of 18, and would be sometime before she would be freed, according to TSB inspectors on board. Destination Chicago.

News stories say Sedna Desgagnes was carrying iron.
Pig iron or iron ore?
