Seeing the Maritimes: Halifax Visit by the C W N A
The C W N A party enjoyed two days in Halifax with warm hospitality from Haligonians. About three hundred delegates from across provinces attended meetings at the technical college, hearing greetings from Mayor Murphy and Premier Armstrong. The group toured the harbor aboard the Lady Laurier, learned about local industry including shipbuilding, drydock work, a large oil refinery, and Moir's Chocolates, and explored Halifax’s fortifications and citadel with reflections on the 1917 munitions explosion and city restoration.
