It's a bad day for HRM, no other way to put it. Look out for your neighbours, and thank your firefighters, many of whom put themselves seriously in harm's way today. Unfortunately, it is far from over but hopefully some improvement tomorrow.
If you are being evacuated from the wildfires and need a space for your pet, please text us 902-229-8620. We are here to help. The Nova Scotia SPCA has over 75 evacuated animals in care as of Monday morning, and we are making room to help more.
Westwood Hills, Tantallon update: The wildfire, estimated to cover 788 hectares, is out of control.
Crews on scene include 32 DNRR, 170 from HRM, 7 from Department of Natural Defence, 30 HRM fire trucks, 2 DNRR helicopters and 1 water bomber from Newfoundland and Labrador.

The Mariupol garrison has indeed achieved 500% of what anyone could reasonably expect from a human being.
National Guard troops, Marines, Border Guards, local militia, the police, the Battle of Azovstal.

It feels like this big war against the Russian invasion has been forever. Since the dawn of time. Life before February 24th seems to be someone elseโs story.
For much of my generation, this war is going to be a central, the most important endeavor of his or her life.
OFFICIAL FROM UKRAINE!
53 injured Azovstal troops evacuated to occupied Novoazovsk for medical treatment. 211 more taken to occupied Olenivka.
There will be a prisoner swap!
The rest of the Azovstal garrison is yet to be rescued.
Russian soldiers forced the 3 brothers to their knees on the edge of a freshly dug pit in northern #Ukraine. The first bullet killed the youngest brother. The second hit the eldest. The round aimed for Mykola struck him close to his right ear. He survived. https://t.co/bhOnqZByGl
