A wildfire that tore through homes and businesses in the Halifax area is 100 percent contained, but a historic fire in southwestern Nova Scotia remains out of control.

The province’s natural resources department says the Tantallon fire northwest of the capital’s city’s downtown is now under control, meaning it is not expected to grow but is not yet out.
