It's about 45 minutes north of Stanfield International (YHZ) on Highway 102, and a common pit stop for folks heading to or from Pictou County, Amherst, or the New Brunswick border. Locals know it as the Hub of Nova Scotia, a nickname that comes straight from its highway junction, and it's been around since New England Planters resettled the area back in 1759.
