I am living in Southern California and am so grateful to a friend in Bridgewater for sending me this website so that I can at last view the devastation that took place last Sunday. The Los Angeles papers had very little coverage, but then that's not so surprising considering very few Angelenos know where Nova Scotia is half the time. A light dawns when I tell them how close it is to Maine! Fortunately, my family and friends had no damage to their homes. I was home in August but will be in for a big surprise on my next trip next year. How sad that the City of Trees had to lose so many. Halifax has been through worse destruction and will weather this as well. Hang in there, Haligonians!!!

Shut up you hippie! There's no proof that this hurricane had anything to do with global warming! 300 years ago we had hurricanes that were probably worse than this..

oh yeah, from Halifax in Quebec. Horrible devastation....

dear nova scotians,
i am acanadian living in europe italy for 34 years and i am very saddened by what has happened to the most beautiful province in canada. however these terrible events are happening with more violence due to the heating of the planet. if we could only take a god look at these pictures and destruction and try to avoid these happenings in the future. we can only do this if we stop and take a true look at the lack of respect we have towards the natural beauty around us. i would do just what mother nature is doing i would fight back with violence.
a loyal canadian (and may i add a very homesick one for my beautiful canada)
