Thanks Colin for confirming more than 20cm in Antigonish. Impressive late March snowman 🤶
We measured just now in our usual spots and it’s 23cm right in the middle of Antigonish, partially melting with more coming down. It’s turning to cement.

Canada must speak up against the arbitrary detention of travellers. Canadians and other nationals have been kidnapped by ICE.
These are not the actions of a democratic nation.
This is the creep of fascism.
I am calling on Canadians to avoid all travel to the USA.
