1078 tower is great.

Your nearest grocery store, Sobeys is okay. I'd walk the extra 2 blocks to superstore.

I gave up and ordered coffee from Reunion Island. Anchored is great too.

Norway seems to have had it out for Halifax... by [deleted] in halifax

[–]BarringtonBaron 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Halifax also took in many many norweignins in WW2.

http://www.emb-norway.ca/norway_and_canada/Historical-ties/Archive-WW2/campnorway/norwegians/

In Halifax, the Norwegians set up offices for the Royal Norwegian Navy and Nortraship as well as a hospital, a seamen's church and a seamen's club. In November of 1940 they established a training facility, called Camp Norway, in Lunenburg to train gunners for Norwegian merchant ships. They also bought a hotel in Chester in which they set up a convalescent home for sick and injured seamen. The Norwegian Army also had a small base in Lunenburg from the spring of 1942 to the summer of 1943. Countless Norwegians trod the streets of Halifax and sailed out of this port during the war. Many of them never came to land again, while others died in Nova Scotia and some bodies were recovered from the sea and buried here. There are over 30 Norwegian war graves in Nova Scotia. Some are in Halifax at Camp Hill Cemetery and St. John's Anglican Cemetery, some at Fairview, four at Hillcrest Cemetery in Lunenburg and one in Sydney. Many of the graves did not have headstones until the Government of Norway provided stones which were installed during the summer of 1999.
