From the Niagara Falls Review:
The death of a SeaWorld trainer who was attacked by a killer whale Wednesday has little chance of happening at Marineland in Niagara Falls, a company spokeswoman said.

From the Niagara Falls Review:
Close to 50 families facing eviction from a trailer park owned by Marineland are hoping city council will be their white knight, but councillors themselves are warning them not to pin their hopes on city hall.
