HALIFAX —The Cape Breton Regional Municipality has declared a state of emergency as post-tropical storm Fiona—one of the strongest storms to ever strike Canada’s East Coast—continues to lash the island.
Fiona was churning out hurricane-force winds when it made landfall at 4 a.m. at the eastern edge of mainland Nova Scotia, near of Canso.
