The Limoilou dust controversy involves the Port of Quebec, St. Lawrence Stevedoring Ltd. and the residents of Quebec City, who claimed that the quality of their environment and their health had been degraded by dust emanating from ore transshipment at the nearby port. The controversy was triggered in October 2012 by the observation of red dust covering sections of the Vieux-Limoilou neighborhood. After documenting other similar incidents, residents filed two class-action suits against the Port of Quebec and St. Lawrence Stevedoring. In March 2018, St. Lawrence Stevedoring recognized its responsibility for the incidents, and agreed to compensate residents who could prove damages.

  • La controverse des poussières à Limoilou concerne le port de Québec, la compagnie Arrimage du Saint-Laurent et des citoyens de Québec qui considèrent que la qualité de leur environnement, et éventuellement celle de leur santé, est dégradée les poussières issues du transbordement de minerai qui se fait au port. L'élément déclencheur est l'observation, en octobre 2012, de poussière rouge recouvrant une partie le quartier du Vieux-Limoilou. Arrimage du Saint-Laurent, une compagnie locataire des terrains du port, reconnait sa responsabilité pour cet épisode de poussière. Après avoir documenté d'autres épisodes, des citoyens ont intenté deux recours collectifs contre le port de Québec et Arrimage du Saint-Laurent. En 2016, les deux parties étaient toujours devant la cour. (fr)
