Nova Scotia towing runs on consumer protection law and municipal bylaws. Halifax declares overnight winter parking bans during and after snowfall (announced, not fixed-date) - parked cars on ban streets get ticketed and towed. Private-lot towing requires signage; release fees should be posted at the compound.
The 100-series highways plus the Cobequid Pass see the worst winter events; nor'easters can flip from rain to whiteout in an hour. On the 102 and 103, shoulders are decent - get fully clear and stay behind the guardrail. Watch the harbour-effect ice in Halifax's steep downtown streets.
Halifax's overnight winter parking ban is enforced when declared - sign up for hfxALERT to know before your car does. Coastal freeze-thaw makes black ice the signature hazard.

Because coverage comes from nearby centres, pricing for Cape Breton (Sydney) usually includes travel distance - expect the Nova Scotia typical range of $85–$120 hook-up plus $3.25–$4.50/km, calculated from the operator's base. That makes the all-in quote (not the rate) the number to ask for.
