The AI robot who narrated this video couldn't possibly understand how wonderful this city is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@TheNguyenben85]

As someone who lives in Halifax, Citadel Hill is probably the only thing that won't bore you to tears. But it still might.

[@maryrafuse3851]

I have a feeling reading and study are not part of your background. Halifax is both a spiritual and intellectual city.

[@sihTdaeRtnaCuoY]

@@maryrafuse3851This really couldn't be any further from reality. Halifax is an atheist city, and I don't see what makes it an intellectual city either. Where are all the intellectuals and what are they doing? The most widely known people from NS in general are athletes and a handful of actors. We don't even have internationally acclaimed authors, let alone scientists or other intellectuals. We're a city of hipster morons who think they are intellectuals maybe. That I would give you.

As someone born and raised in Halifax, citadel is probably the most boring thing you could go see lol

[@sihTdaeRtnaCuoY]

@@arttificcer2324 Well you could visit one of the many burgeoning tent cities instead.

A visit to the Titanic graves at Fairview Lawn Cemetery should be on this list.

[@JohnDoe-zb7dz]

Dont forget to visit Sunnyvale.

Those who love the study of history will love Halifax. Those who don't want to learn new things will find little to excite them. I find the facts not mentioned most interesting. One it that Halifax was the home of Samuel Cunard and that he founded the famous Cunard Line. White Star Line was Cunard's big rival. The disasters that White Star experienced all found their way back to the rival city in one way or another beginning with the SS Atlantic in 1873. It is the rival line, Cunard, that will rescue the Titanic survivors and it is Halifax that will bury many of the Titanic dead. Growth in Halifax was slow for decades, now this city with a stunning setting is growing fast and up with new high rises everywhere you look. It's fun to see an old city energized by new people from all over the world and growing towards one million people. What is even more exciting is that once one million people are reached it will grow beyond this rapidly.

You forgot one thing, visit one of our many shanty towns.

So nice ❤

[@melanieakerley8194]

That must be old video of the farmers market. It's not that big anymore and is in the far side of the building. I miss the way it used to be.

[@robparker1386]

I live in Dartmouth. I love how one on the list of things to do in halifax is to leave halifax. Lol. Also all they did was google tourism halifax and paste it into a video they have never been here. And as you can see, not much to actually do here. You can eat seafood, get drunk and go on a boat tour of the harbor you can see the same thing on the ferry for $2.00

[@johnt8636]

I grew up in Dartmouth. Moved across the harbour when I was 20. You couldn't pay me to move back to Dartmouth.

[@BatMajor]

Im just interested in the dark beauty of Halifax but this is also nice to know in case I dont find her

[@dinaoom977]

Nice video. But I have to say it is very sad what the city has to offer

[@natnaelgirma1783]

like what

[@robparker1386]

Agreed. I live here in Dartmouth. Essentially Halifax and there is nothing to do here.

[@jonathonjones7068]

Number 1 leave...

[@Tundra71]

I have been there, litter, garbage everywhere, where should be flower beds, litter, cigarette butts and garbage. Homeless everywhere in Spring Garden Rd, drug addicted. Half of new planted trees are already dead.

[@Deepa-ub4bn]

R u staying in helifax ??

[@BatMajor]

sounds like LA but Im sure Halifax is a decent place

[@sihTdaeRtnaCuoY]

@@BatMajor It's not as bad as they're making it out to be, nowhere near LA, but it is getting worse. As far as garbage everywhere, not sure where that is coming from, it's certainly no worse than any North American city. Homeless problem is getting worse though, and I'm not seeing anything in the pipeline that will reverse that trend. Expensive groceries, insane rent if you can even find a place, etc.

[@maryrafuse3851]

You have an axe to grind and have not experienced success in this city, success that others have found. So, you see negatives everywhere you look. Drugs are a problem in all major cities and those who litter and throw cigarette butts should spend time locked up. No question about this.

[@sihTdaeRtnaCuoY]

@@maryrafuse3851 I think you are actually just getting super defensive. And I don't think that locking up people who litter would improve the city at all. Locking people up for minor offenses would only be another huge negative to living here, and would also cost tax payers a ton of money with nothing but negative results. If you really wanted to spend our tax dollars on something to solve the problem, spend it on trash cleanup jobs, and then give those jobs to the people living in tents.
