In the Magdalen Islands, Tropical Storm Fiona caused significant power outages on the islands, as well as floods and damages. Local authorities also declared a state of emergency and closed the road network.

Winds are blowing at speeds exceeding 100 km/h on Saturday morning. Boats are dangerously approaching docks due to coastal flooding that worries fishermen.

In a press conference on Saturday morning, the acting mayor, Richard LeBlanc, asked residents of the archipelago to stay indoors and not go outside.
