After our sighting of that Garter Snake this afternoon, I did a little 
reading.

Turns out that the aggressive behaviour is quite common (Gilhen, 
"Amphibians and Reptiles of Nova Scotia").

Further reading in the Wikipedia article 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garter_snake> reveals the surprising fact 
that Garter Snakes are now known to be mildly venomous. So much for the 
frequent statement that there are no venomous snakes in Nova Scotia.
