Certain winters in Nova Scotia are actually quite mild even though the cold months drag on forever, so some years you will probably have us beat in terms of cold and for others, we'll be colder. We don't get good Arctic outflows every year, but the temps to regularly dip down to -15 most nights in the heart of winter (and lower for any cold snaps). I'd think the weather is likely fairly comparable to the BC interior for the Halifax/eastern seaboard area - which is the warmer part of the province.

What breed(s) do you have?

Sounds like you have a pretty good handle on preparations for winter. You can also lay down a thick layer of straw (not hay) in the coop for those cold snaps as straw retains heat a little better than shavings.
