HALIFAX
An iconic lighthouse standing at the mouth of Nova Scotia’s Halifax Harbour is at risk of going silent forever.

At this time there are no plans to reactivate the fog signal, said Harvey Vardy, regional director of Atlantic Navigational Programs at the Canadian Coast Guard.

It s a sound, however, that hasn t been heard since needed repairs were deemed unnecessary by the Canadian Coast guard, leaving the marine warning signal - silent. ....
