You think you’ve experienced Brier Island… but did you watch the sunset at Western Light?
At the most westerly point in Nova Scotia, the day doesn’t just end—it puts on a show.
As the sun slowly sinks into the Bay of Fundy, the sky comes alive with shades of gold, orange, pink, and deep crimson. The iconic red-and-white striped Western Light stands watch over the rugged coastline, and for a few quiet moments, it feels like you have the edge of the world all to yourself.
The best part? You don’t have to race for the last ferry.
Book a night at the @brierisland lodge, take your time exploring the island, enjoy a memorable dinner, then head to Western Light for a sunset you’ll be talking about long after your trip is over.
Some places are meant to be rushed through.
Brier Island isn’t one of them.
Thank you for sharing TIANS! We are so happy to share the release of an incredible documentary on The Electric City! And we have so much great news and events coming all summer including a screening and Q&A with the Director, so stay tuned on our page! We are just getting started!
Electric City Documentary Released
Congratulations to Hal Theriault and Stacey Doucette on the release of the new Electric City documentary !
As a result of decades of work by Hal and Stacey, this incredible story of resilience and ingenuity has been captured, helping to preserve this significant piece of Nova Scotia’s history. Tom Lynskey, Part Time Explorer (HFX Studios) narrates the ‘La Nouvelle France’ documentary, available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB6UmGle1WI&t=3s
The Electric City Interpretive Centre is scheduled to open in the Spring of 2027 and will operate as a year round attraction in Weymouth, NS. https://nselectriccity.ca/
Nova Scotia stories, our history, and our culture are at the heart of the tourism experience. We cannot thank enough all of those involved in the Electric City story, for what they have done to preserve this important piece of history.

Well, the time has come. 😊
As my 60th birthday approaches, it occurred to me that my travel blog title, Midlife Report, might leave readers wondering whether I was planning to live to 120!
So, I`ve retired the name and launched Donaldson on Assignment.
I`ll continue writing travel stories for traditional publications and digital media outlets. Through Donaldson on Assignment, I`ll share more travel stories, observations from the road and the occasional personal essay.
The first story under the new banner is now live, inspired by an impromptu weekend getaway to Wolfville, Annapolis Royal and Digby, Nova Scotia.
Thanks to everyone who`s followed along over the years. I`m excited for this next chapter!

October 2025 we drove to the east side of Canada, one of our most rememberable stops was Digby❤️❤️
Here are some shots very early in my photography journey that bring back amazing memories with my fiancée isabellemz
#digby #novascotiatourism #amateurphotography #brierisland
One of Digby’s most beautiful summer traditions happens every Sunday evening.
As the sun begins to sink toward the horizon at Point Prim Lighthouse, the sound of bagpipes drifts across the water.
Mary Saulnier pipes down the sun, marking the end of another day on the Bay of Fundy.
There’s no stage. No tickets. No fanfare.
Just a lighthouse, the ocean, a setting sun, and music carried on the evening breeze.
Times vary each week to match the sunset.
Sometimes the best attractions aren’t attractions at all.
They’re moments.

💚✨ What a blessing! ✨💚
This week, I had the incredible honor of being featured on CTV itistiaupshaw
Just a few weeks ago, I prayed and asked God to open doors and place me on platforms where I could share my heart and sound the call for healthier food choices across Nova Scotia. To see that prayer beginning to unfold fills me with overwhelming gratitude and reminds me that God is always working behind the scenes.
A heartfelt thank you to itistiaupshaw and the entire CTV team for giving me the opportunity to share my story, my passion, and the mission behind Café Caye Mangé.
This journey began with one very special person—my beautiful daughter,miaa.ln_ . ❤️ She planted the seed that encouraged me to open what became Nova Scotia`s first Afro-Caribbean vegan restaurant and the first Black-owned business on Main Street in Yarmouth. Thank you, Amelia, for believing in me, for believing in this vision, and for inspiring me to bring a little piece of Stlucia to our community.
Every day I am humbled by the visitors who walk through our doors from across Canada and around the world. So many tell us how surprised—and grateful—they are to discover a fully vegan Afro-Caribbean restaurant in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. Seeing people experience our culture, flavors, and hospitality while enjoying food made with love is one of the greatest joys of my life.
My passion for healing through food is deeply personal. My own journey taught me that what we eat has the power to nourish, restore, and transform our lives. That experience continues to fuel my mission through Café Caye Mangé and our Foods That Heal initiative—to inspire healthier choices, celebrate our Caribbean heritage, and show that nutritious food can be vibrant, comforting, and full of incredible flavor.
To everyone who has supported this dream—from our loyal customers and community partners to every visitor who has shared a meal with us—thank you. Your encouragement reminds me why I continue this work each day.
With God`s guidance, this is only the beginning. Here`s to continuing to serve, educate, and heal—one plate at a time. 💚🌿

There’s something special about a place where visitors are welcomed like old friends.
At @chetwickspub, it’s not just about the food—it’s about the people. Whether you’re stopping in for lunch, sharing stories over a drink, or ending a day of exploring Brier Island, you’ll find a warm welcome waiting for you.
It’s the kind of place where locals gather, visitors feel at home, and conversations between tables aren’t uncommon. In a world that often feels rushed, ChetWick’s reminds us how good simple hospitality can be.
And while you’re there, don’t leave without trying the BBQ Chicken Wonton Nachos. Crispy, cheesy, loaded with flavour, and quickly becoming a favourite among those in the know.

When in doubt, ask the experts.
We asked the team at Lazy Bear Brewing to tell us their go-to pizza and drink pairings, and the results are in!
Some are classic. Some might surprise you.
As for me?
Pineapple Pilgrimage + Cranberry Cider
(Yes, I said pineapple. No, I’m not taking questions at this time.)
What’s your perfect pairing?
