@paladin.history.d: Why does a random Canadian province send Boston a massive Christmas tree every single year? 🎄🤯 The answer involves the biggest pre-nuclear explosion in human history! 💥 1️⃣ In 1917, two ships collided in Halifax harbor, igniting thousands of tons of explosives and leveling the city. 🚢 2️⃣ While victims were trapped in a massive blizzard, the very first train of doctors and supplies came all the way from Boston! 🚂 3️⃣ To say thank you, Nova Scotia has sent Boston a perfect 15-meter Christmas tree every year since 1971! ❤️ Want the step-by-step breakdown?
