There is tremendous infrastructure damage throughout the valley. That will be rebuilt but none of that will replace the loss of a young life that’s been lost here.” Wolfville Mayor Wendy Donovan said that the devastation from the floods this year and last year are a first for the community. “The weather events in our communities that we experience this year and last year and a few years ago are beyond anything that I think most of us have ever experienced before,” she said. “Responding to them will take all of us as we anticipate and respond to this new normal.” With files from CityNews Halifax’s Natasha O’Neill. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post 2 bodies found on the shore of Sable Island: Multi-agency response next post «آبل» تحذر مستخدمي أجهزة «آيفون» من هجمات برامج التجسس You may also like حكومة فورد تخطط لمنح كل شخص شيك بـ200... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 دعم مالي وللاستقرار في كندا للفلسطينيين القادمين من... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 الرعاية الصحية في رأس أولويات سكان ساسكاتشِوان 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Former Canadian Olympic snowboarder charged by FBI for... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 PM Trudeau to shuffle cabinet as four ministers... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Number of Nova Scotians in need of family... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Nova Scotia government hiring 47 new staff members... 18 أكتوبر، 2024 Liam Payne, former One Direction member, dies at 31... 16 أكتوبر، 2024 Nova Scotia offers retirement fund top-ups for doctors,... 16 أكتوبر، 2024 Halifax police look for woman involved in robbery... 16 أكتوبر، 2024
