Agree

FYI the Antarctica softshelled egg was not dinosaurian but of unknown orgins however the remains are consistent with a Mosasaur.   It was found in Cretaceous sediments,  anything close to that in NS.

There are deposits near Joggins that get up into the Jurassic. I didn't make time to visit the museum there though.
