Here's a look at the spill of an estimated 87,000 litres of gasoline in Resolute Bay, which is contained in a rubber berm. The streak of stained snow near the centre results from spilled gasoline. Resolute Bay’s twilight is now giving way to 24-hour darkness, making clean-up efforts more challenging, the Government of Nunavut says. (PHOTO COURTESY OF RON ELLIOTT)
