"We are honored to be able to donate our tree as a gift for the people of Boston on behalf of all Nova Scotians," said Andrea MacEachern. "We can't believe our tree will take centre stage at this special celebration." The gift of a tree is a thank you to the people of Boston for the support and aid Boston provided after the Halifax Explosion on Dec. 6, 1917. "We have a strong relationship with Boston, one that we respect and want to foster," said Premier Stephen McNeil in a news release today. "We will never forget the kindness Bostonians showed us in a time of need and that's why we are happy to continue this tradition."
