""At a time when the federal regime is making life more difficult for residents in Boston and our neighbors in Canada, it's important that we make clear where we stand. The people of Boston support our Canadian friends," Wu wrote in an Instagram post alongside photos of her with Halifax Mayor Andy Fillmore. Wu met with Fillmore earlier this week, toured a center for health care research, and swung by a " living lab dedicated to transportation, supply chain and logistics industries.""
"Wu became the first Boston mayor to attend and participate in the "Tree for Boston" tree cutting ceremony in Nova Scotia, according to her office. Each year, Nova Scotia gifts Boston a massive white or red spruce or balsam fir to use as a Christmas tree on the Common. In 1917, more than 1,700 people died after two vessels collided in Halifax harbor."
Michelle Wu spent three days in Nova Scotia after securing a second term as Boston mayor. She met with Halifax Mayor Andy Fillmore, toured a health care research center, and visited a living lab focused on transportation, supply chain, and logistics. Wu laid a wreath at the Halifax Remembrance Day Ceremony and joined the Tree for Boston tree-cutting, becoming the first Boston mayor to participate. The trip emphasized Boston's support for Canada amid federal tensions with the Trump administration. Wu helped cut the Christmas tree that will stand on Boston Common this holiday season.
