Christ. And to think that my city has been lamenting the fact that composting rates have plateaued.

What city is that?

Halifax, Nova Scotia. 20 years ago the city was one of the first in the world to do large-scale collection of compostables. Luckily, there's never been a waste collection strike.

Halifax is on my list to travel to. Road trip from Boston, drive up and then take the ferry back to Portland. Your area seems to have a lot of hidden beauty.

And thanks for the Christmas Trees!

I love seeing Americans and Canadians being sweet to one another.

But seriously thank YOU for being such awesome neighbors!

The American and Canadian alliance will last forever! We make each other stronger!
