Accordinig to the Halifax Citadel Foundation, the Canadian Parka Service has stifl not given the foundation the go-ahead to begin work. «Major repairs and conserva- tion of these ùirplaceable airti- facto are essential for their long- termn preservation and use," says the fou-ndation. : Once funding,,for the three- year restoration project is appro- ved, work will consist of mast treatment, painting, lubrication and replacement of damaged or misaingpieces.

Farewell, Crown attorney -for the former Ontario county. Farewell moved them to Whitby and they were erected outaide the old Whitby court- house. When county officiais even- tually built their new headquar- ters on Rossland Rd.,the cannons took up residenoe there.
