Nova Scotia is armed with one of the greatest deep-water harbors on Earth. And back in the 1800s, it was a wealthy, global maritime titan. It should have become the undisputed economic and cultural anchor of Canada’s east coast. Instead, its population stalled, and it spent much of the 20th century economically sidelined. So what went wrong? How did a province with such massive geographic potential get left behind? The answer involves a giant river, the harshest ocean weather on the planet, and a bizarre geopolitical trap.
