This two-day event featured Graeme Wynn of UBC, giving the MacKay Lecture on "Sustainability and Resilience in Atlantic Canada: A Long View" to a packed house. The next day we mixed business with pleasure in a perfect combination: we spent the morning planning regional projects, including conferences, teaching collaboration, and publications; and the afternoon we went on a wonderful tour of historic Point Pleasant Park in Halifax's south end.

More detailed summary to follow!

The view to McNab's Island and Hangman's Beach that - now cleared by Juan - is to be preserved as an illustration of 18th-century viewscapes.
