Like England and like the United States, Nova Scotia is a melting pot of races. Here a Scotch soldier on leave visits Peggy’s Cove. Canada still resists conscription for overseas, its expeditionary force is volunteer. In Nova Scotia are English, French, German, Scotch, Welsh, Irish, Mic Mac Indians and the descendants of British slaves
