Some flights into Halifax from Pearson Airport in Mississauga are delayed or cancelled following a major snowfall in Nova Scotia.
More than 80 centimetres of snow was reported in eastern Nova Scotia and Cape Breton on Sunday (Feb. 4), but strong winds sculpted massive drifts that will take days to deal with.
As of Monday morning, a local state of emergency remained in effect in parts of Cape Breton as Nova Scotia.
