The mosque's funeral page names TWO numbers as the first point of contact for funeral arrangements - 902-880-7289 and 902-402-0473 - with 902-266-6959 listed as a backup contact. Try both first-contact numbers before the backup. The page states the service is 'available at all times an essential service' but does not designate any line as a 24-hour line. The coordinator arranges transfer, ghusl, kafan and the cemetery.
Prayer times at NSICC - Kearney Lake Masjid
Worked out from this masjid’s coordinates for today’s date. They are not NSICC - Kearney Lake Masjid’s announced jamaa‘ah times — those are set by the masjid and usually differ. Check nsicc.ca for the jamaa‘ah timetable.

These are calculated times, not NSICC - Kearney Lake Masjid’s jamaa‘ah times. They are worked out in your browser from this masjid’s own coordinates and today’s date, using the ISNA convention — the same arithmetic a printed timetable uses. What a masjid announces is something else: iqamah is set by the masjid, usually a chosen number of minutes after the prayer begins, and many hold it at a fixed clock time for weeks at a stretch. So the two will not match, and they are not meant to. For the times the congregation actually prays, check the masjid’s own site or phone (902) 832-6300.

What we haven’t confirmed
We could not establish: On-site mortuary, Cold storage, 24-hour janazah line, the Jumu’ah time. Those are published as gaps rather than filled with a plausible guess. If you know the answer — especially if you are from this organisation — tell us and we will verify and update the listing.
Planning ahead, rather than in a crisis?
The two things a funeral coordinator asks a family for are the burial wishes and the will. Recording where your will is kept and working out the inheritance shares now spares your family both questions at the worst possible moment.
