Nova Scotia Premier’s Vehicle Damaged During Protest
Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston was involved in a concerning incident on Wednesday in Wolfville, Nova Scotia. After delivering a speech to the Annapolis Valley Chamber of Commerce, the Premier was met by a group of protesters as he attempted to leave the event.
As the Premier entered his vehicle, protesters surrounded the car, preventing it from moving forward.
