George Metcalfe speaks to a traveler outside the cabin where he works, on the outskirts of Nain, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, April 21, 2022. Four times a year, an ice breaker ship travels to the Voisey's Bay mine to bring supplies and Metcalfe is stationed just outside of Nain along the route until the ice freezes over and is no longer a safety concern.

The bow of the Warren Jr., a 150 foot offshore supply boat, cuts a path through the ice as it works as an ice breaker for the commuter ferry in the waters off Hingham, Massachusetts March 3, 2015. With its black hull rumbling against a field of broken ice, the Warren Jr. slowly eased away from a dock in the Boston suburb of Hingham on Tuesday, aiming to clear a path for some of the four ferries that carry commuters from here into the city each day. But in a sign of how long Massachusetts has been gripped by freezing temperatures, no other vessels followed, as the tide narrowed the channel behind the ocean-going supply boat pressed into service as an icebreaker. It was the 15th day of canceled ferry service since late January and the outing was meant to speed the fleet's return to service, which could still be days away.

Panamanian authorities stopped the ship last week as it headed into the Panama Canal, and arrested the crew after finding undeclared missile equipment, disassembled rockets, MiG fighter jets and other arms aboard that Cuba said were being sent back to North Korea for repair.
