"Trudeau expresses concern over major rain damage in Nova Scotia, issues evacuation order"

Heavy rain in Nova Scotia, Canada, caused floods and "unimaginable" damage, with four people, including two children, reported missing. The storm dumped over 25 cm of rain in just 24 hours, washing away roads, weakening bridges, and swamping buildings. Nova Scotia Premier Tim Houston declared a "scary, significant situation" and called for significant support from the federal government. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau expressed concern and promised assistance. The flooding is the latest weather-related calamity to hit Canada this year, following wildfires and heavy rains in the eastern United States.
