Haligonians help Hub
By Neal - 4/20/13 - 3:09 pmHalifax may not be one of Boston's official sister cities, but once again it's asserted its status as Boston's best friend: Nova Scotia to give $50,000 to Boston Children's Hospital after bombings.
The relationship goes back to at least 1917.
Mounties always get their man - but sometimes just to give him a hat
By adamg - 11/26/12 - 11:27 amA cavalcade of Nova Scotians, including red-suited Mounties, the deputy premier of the province and the percussion band Squid, will greet no doubt bemused commuters 7 to 9:30 on Thursday morning outside Park Street station, handing out "I Heart Nova Scotia" toques, um, caps and just generally thanking Bostonians for all that help we sent their way back in 1917. They'll then stick around for the lighting of the Nova Scotia Christmas tree on the Common, in a ceremony that starts at 6 p.m.
