My wife and her friends ran the NYC marathon with Ashton Kutcher, and made it in Casey Neistat's vlog. youtube.com/watch?v=4GV1yI…
Another year, another pumpkin drop. This time it was a 1,330-pound gourd smashed from 200 feet up. (@Q104Halifax)
It’s National School Bus Safety week… and yesterday an F-150 driver hit the flashing stop sign of a bus picking up kids. (Pic: Public note from NS RCMP.)
NEW: Fiona was a billion-dollar storm: $660m (insured damage, according to the Insurance Bureau of Canada) $300m (federal recovery package) $50m (PEI provincial support) $40m (NS provincial support) $30m (NL provincial support) $__ (other uninsured damage)
(This has now officially been announced.)

Got old COVID masks laying around? The federal government has millions of them. The focus now is to keep them out of landfills.
NEW: In the aftermath of Hurricane Fiona’s phone outages, Nova Scotia’s provincial government has tabled legislation that would require telecommunications companies to do more before, during, and after the next storm. Penalties for non-compliant companies could be $250,000/day.
Five cruise ships visiting Halifax today. (Busiest day of the year in terms of ships. Most total passengers in a day was Oct 6th.)
When you’re live on TV under a leafy branch and the audience gets to watch a treeclipse.
Proud to watch Meaghan come across the line this morning, first-place woman at the Valley Harvest Half-Marathon. (1:22:13)

NEW: “State of Emergency” declared in parts of Nova Scotia, which will allow military personnel to assist with more tasks, like civilian road work.
VIDEO: Four faces from Fiona's aftermath. - The American - The Resident - The Arborist - The Executive
NEW: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announces $300 million in federal support for post-Fiona cleanup and repairs.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in Nova Scotia, announcing a federal support package for Atlantic Canadians impacted by Hurricane Fiona.
Still 20,000+ homes & businesses without power in Nova Scotia, nine days after Fiona hit Atlantic Canada.
264 years ago today (Oct. 2, 1758) the Nova Scotia legislature met for the first time. One of the first things politicians voted for... they'd work without pay.
“I’m from Nova Scotia. I was born and brought-up here. And I’ve never seen a storm like Hurricane Fiona.” - Anita Anand, Minister of National Defence
