Halifax closing Cogswell Park encampment due to newly-opened adult care facility

Tents are pictured at Cogswell Park in Halifax on July 7, 2025. (CTV Atlantic) The Halifax Regional Municipality has announced it will close the Cogswell Park encampment in the Quinpool Road area of the city next month. Notices have been issued to people sheltering at the site, stating they have until Sept. 21 to leave. The de-designation is due to a new adult care facility that has recently opened at the corner of Robie Street and Quinpool. 'Since this former designated location is within 50 metres of it, this site must be closed because it no longer complies with the municipality's encampment policies, which prohibit sheltering within 50 metres of an adult care facility,' reads a Wednesday news release from HRM. Those currently sleeping rough at Cogswell Park will be offered resources and support over the next several weeks, including the temporary storage of their belongings. The municipality adds there are several spaces available at provincial indoor shelters and temporary housing options. 'As more indoor shelter spaces and supportive housing options become available, more municipal designated locations will be closed, de-designated and returned to their intended purposes as spaces for everyone,' the release reads. There were 75 tents and four trailers in the municipality's remaining designated sites as of Aug. 15. For more Nova Scotia news, visit our dedicated provincial page

BOOM! As the sound reverberates across the region, people may duck and cover until they know what the heck is going on. In fact, it's soldiers from CFB Borden in the Logistics Training Centre Ammunition Technician Corporal course holding controlled detonations to dispose of unused ammunition. 'At no time will this training pose a risk to local population or infrastructure; rigorous safety standards that govern the use of controlled detonations will be strictly observed. Approximately up to 18 controlled detonations will take place daily,' says the press release from National Defence / Government of Canada. The detonations at CFB Borden will be heard between August 18 and August 22, and again from August 25 to August 28. This training will take place between the hours of approximately 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. excluding weekends. The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) employs a wide range of ammunition on ranges across Canada. Ammunition Technicians assist in the safe and expedient disposal of any misfired, dud or obsolete ammunition in Canada or on deployed operations overseas.
