About this episode
The Seal Island lighthouse sits on a remote island of the southwestern tip of Nova Scotia. The lighthouse has served as both a welcome and a warning to mariners who travel along the coastline since 1831. But now its future is uncertain, as a new steel tower is being built to replace it. Chris Mills is a former Seal Island lighthouse keeper. He talks to guest host Piya Chattopadhyay about the fight to save the Seal Island lighthouse.
