Present
With the demise of the cod fishery, Savage Cove-Sandy Cove, as well as many other neighbouring communities, are suffering financially. The towns' population's has been steadily decreasing as residents leave their homes for better job opportunities elsewhere. However, a fish plant in Sandy Cove is still operating and serving neighbouring communities. Also, various industries still function such as the shrimp and lobster fisheries, as well as other available smaller fisheries and fur trading.

Famous quotes containing the word present:
“There is too much sour grapes for my taste in the present American attitude. The time to denounce the bankers was when we were all feeding off their gold plate; not now! At present they have not only my sympathy but my preference. They are the last representatives of our native industries.”
—Edith Wharton (1862–1937)
“In the moment when you make the least petition to God, though it be but a silent wish that he may approve you, or add one moment to your life,—do you not, in the very act, necessarily exclude all other beings from your thought? In that act, the soul stands alone with God, and Jesus is no more present to your mind than your brother or your child.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It is sadder to find the past again and find it inadequate to the present than it is to have it elude you and remain forever a harmonious conception of memory.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
