The twinning stretch of Trans-Canada compared to building railroad

why is Halifax missing?

The Atlantic provinces are known as the "Atlantic Gateway"- it consists of New Brunswick, PEI, NS and Newfoundland.
NB to NS -Deadliest Highway TansCan#2- Nearly Fix This final section -- which alone has taken three years to build -- is the current route between Grand Falls and Long Creek, the scene of so many crashes that the accident rate is twice that of the national average. Between 1997 and 2001, 807 accidents took place on the road. Twenty-seven of them were fatalities, in which 34 people died. http://www2.canada.com/edmontonjournal/news/story.html?id=4cebe4a2-7ef4-4bf8-91f6-32656ac3c505

A truck driver has been fined nearly $400 for smashing into a toll booth in northern Nova Scotia last month.

It was this same highway that left 1,500 vehicles stranded at the during a winter storm, not once but twice this winter, sparking a class action law suit. All leading to Halifax

Highway 101 was once known as Nova Scotia's deadliest highway. Recently, that moniker has gone to Highway 103 along the south shore, where 10 people died last year.

According to the provincial Department of Transportation, 29 people have been killed in crashes on Highway 103 since 2006, compared to 14 on Highway 101.

An online petition calls on the provincial and federal governments to twin Highway 103 between exits 5 and 13, and upgrade the road to Exit 19 by 2010. http://www.cbc.ca/canada/nova-scotia/story/2009/03/06/highway-101-funding.html
101 loops around Yarmouth back up to halifax via 103
The 101 and 103 both are littered with crosses that mark many victims of fatal crashes.
The 101 is also known as the Harvest Highway.
The province's agricultural heartland, the Annapolis Valley, is honoured, as Highway 101 will now be known as the “Harvest Highway.”

Highway 101 twinning project designed to reduce the number of motor vehicle-related fatalities may now do just the opposite, according to some. A newly-twinned section of Highway 101 between Falmouth and Avonport has already met with some criticism.

At their Dec. 9 session, members of West Hants municipal council declared the recently christened “Harvest Highway” an “accident waiting to happen” -- one day after its official opening.

Councillors said the opening was a rush job that could only end in an even greater death toll. http://www.novanewsnow.com/article-282577-Harvest-Highway-on-a-collision-course.html

Peace and love to all those lost on the Trans Canada going to Hal

103 Aslo runs though the Christmas tree capital of Canada, its interesting to note that about 1/2 km down the road from the sign that welcomes you to "Lunenburg Xmas tree Capital" sits a fur tree decorated with shoes of many travelers. See Santa Claus the Great Imposter

Looks like the Atlantic Gateway is going to have a big "banging" summer ahead!

It has only been in the past few years that Halifax has gain popularity with the music scene. AC/DC to perform on Aug. 6 - @ Magnetic Hill- Moncton NB

Magnetic Hill has been a top attraction in NB since 1933, just off the TC 2 Highway

Stories about a strange road where the wagon would run up on the horses heels when going uphill go back to the 1880's. In 1933 stories of cars rolling uphill without power peaked the curiosity of three newspaper reporters from the Saint John Telegraph Journal. In August of 1933 they traveled to Moncton and spent hours trying every hill they came to in hopes of unraveling the mystery. After 5 hours of no success they stopped to stretch their legs on the way home and you guessed it. . . the car started to roll uphill. Slowly at first and then with gathering momentum the car climbed uphill without power. They spent a couple of hours retrying the hill and using all the equipment they had brought to discover the secret. They noticed the water on the side of the road also running uphill. That ruled out magnetic properties. They decided it must be an optical illusion, but how and why they didn't know. - http://www.magnetichill.com/english.htm

Magnetic_Hill_(Canada) is an example of a gravity hill, a type of optical illusion created by rising and descending terrain. It also falls right in side the capstone pyramid of ley lines below:

"Halifax is hosting some huge acts this summer, including the two Halifax Rock concerts featuring Paul McCartney & KISS. But that’s not all. Mayor Peter Kelly called Halifax Regional Municipality “Atlantic Canada’s concert capital” yesterday, potentially refuelling a friendly rivalry between Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. There’s also the Virgin Festival featuring The Tragically Hip and The Offspring - July 4" http://www.metronews.ca/halifax/local/article/232183--halifax-is-atlantic-canada-s-concert-capital-kelly

There is also a little island off Halifax called Devils Island - It is claimed that hoof prints have been melted into the island's rocky coast, that trail down into the ocean. Urban legend states that divers had followed them as far as they could, but could see no end in site. Today it continues to be a "haunted hot spot". See: Haunted Sites of Halifax & Mcnabs Island for more folklore

# 2 Trans Can also has the Mastodon Ridge which is 1/2 way to the north pole. This little town is called Stewiacke

Halfway between the North Pole & Equator

Controversy in the past over this claim stems from the fact that the Earth is not a perfect sphere, and therefore the halfway mark lies approximately 16 km North of the 45th paralle http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stewiacke,_Nova_Scotia

Sinking of Titanic in 1912 Four days into her journey across the Atlantic @ 11:40 P.M. on the night of April 14, she struck an iceberg and went down Apr.15.


Halifax, Nova Scotia, located on the eastern coast of Canada, has one of the most moving and intimate connections with the Titanic disaster, playing a key role during the tragedy's aftermath and becoming the final resting place of many of her unclaimed victims. Three Halifax ships were involved in the grim task of recovering victims - many of whom were laid to rest in three of our city's cemeteries. http://titanic.gov.ns.ca/


After Titanic- Halifax

"Titanic" could refer to a doomed ship or planet (are we all sailing on the Titanic?) and strangely (since it is apparently the name of the Siberian projectile), went down in the North Atlantic on it's way to New York. According to some rumors, it was also carrying a cursed Egyptian mummy in it's cargo hold. " http://www.enterprisemission.com/bismark.htm

As a result, it is Larsen who appears on the cover of the Peppermint EP. wiki
