Yes  we are safe there was little damage where I live in Halifax we lost power for a day and internet for 2 day, my landline phone is still out but the peninsular Halifax suffered a lot of downed trees and building damage as well as surge damage on the waterfront.   The storm covered the whole province so many still don’t have power or phone service.  The loss of phone service was a new one  as before Bell Aliant landlines never seem to go down during a storm it seem new technology isn’t as reliable as the old in times like these.  Our Koodo  cell service went down for the night  but came back the next day.   The farmers in the valley took a bad hit as the apple crop was at its peak and from what I hear the corn corp may be wiped out too.  The storm surge also did quite a number on our coastal towns and villages as well.
