A photograph taken by hiker Wayne McKay from Meat Cove Mountain in Nova Scotia has ignited debate over whether Newfoundland can be seen from the province. McKay, who took the photo during a hike with his daughter, claims the distant shadowy mass beyond St. Paul Island is Newfoundland, prompting mixed reactions on social media. Experts, including geomatics researcher Tim Webster, suggest that visibility is indeed possible from that elevation, while some Newfoundlanders assert they have spotted Cape Breton from their side. McKay invites skeptics to experience the view themselves, encouraging exploration of both regions.
