How old is this clip! The old Midtown tavern was one of the buildings they drove by. Miss that place! Best place to have a beer after hockey with the boys. Say what you will about their steak, it was awesome after a skate and washed down with a Keith`s. Shitty what happened to the Eric and the boys in this backward looking town! To hell with the view, get in the 21st century will ya! Or do yu really think we have to keep those cannon arcs open in case the French ever invade again!?
i live in nova scotia and if you gonna live in halifax there are 2 parts the good part and the bad part in the bad part you have hobos (i like to say hobo) and deaths. but the good part is JUST AWSOME.
omg you ppl are delusional. This place is full of violent crime. I've lived there for almost 30 years and am so glad I don't live there anymore. I do miss the Halifax water front in the winter but other than that the city can be stressful to live in.
I've lived in Halifax my whole life. I have to say although it does have its flaws, it's a great city. Yes there are some 'sketchy' places around, but overall it's a very nice place to live. My Dad grew up in Oshawa, Ontario and he told me that it was a huge change coming to live here. When random strangers would ask him how his day was going he thought they were going to pick his pocket. XD
Hey, I just moved to Halifax from BC and I love this city, Ignore the morons who post here. Good video...I think I drove that exact same route last week!
I learned about Halifax from the Pomegranate phone:-) Just google it. I'm from Germany, so I have no grip at all what the people in Eastern Canada are like. I understand Bavarian people and the Dutch, I know what to expect from the French and the British. Russian too. It's strange to be looking at a place like this where many things seem so familiar, down to those ducks, yet not to know the people and what they are like. There are 3xpeople in Berlin than in the whole of NS.
I have lived in Texas all my life, seventy years. Through the years i have studied maps and often wondered what it was like in Nova Scotia. Several years ago my wife and I flew to Providence, R.I., rented a car and drove from there to Halifax. What a beautiful place. I suspect that one of the gates to Heaven must be out at Peggy's Cove. I have seen few places as beautiful.
you're right, my cousin lives in Halifax and she is paying a huge rent which I am not keen on paying now that I think of it. I am not really interested in living in Halifax and yes it probably would be a bad idea
I am a Brazilian guy, and I lived in Halifax for 6 months 10 years ago. I loved it, and I would like so much to go back there. The music, the people, the city are yet in my memory.
omg you passed the haunted church at 0:09 !!!!!! it you look at one of the windows on the side you can see the face of an old preast who got blown into it during the halifax explotion.
There's also a house that caught fire from the explosion and people say that sometimes you can see the house burning and people screaming. It's pretty freaky
haters make me smile. Expecially haters with a username like skankyskanks69. I look at comments on my videos like publicity, and it's well known that even bad publicity is good publicity. Thanks for commenting.
@bernietremblay Lucky, I am jealous. I am in Alberta at the moment and we have been away for 5 years. My husband was not big on living in the city, but I miss it so much. It was just the right size for me, big enough to have cultural scene and small enough that people are friendly and sociable.
@mahalcat oh wow now I TOTALLY feel for you, I lived in Alberta for a year a while back! I have another video on my channel called "Rodney Atkins - These Are My People video" which is actually all pics and clips of the boardwalk in Halifax during the tallships, you might like it as well :)
@skankyskanks69 it's the most ghetto place in the province so shut the fuck up u dumb shit.come over here and say that to anyone and i can garentee that you will get shot or beaten shitless.
Halifax my home. My god I was raised a l ghetto kid there, but I moved out to Edmonton now im prep. My god I miss Hali like you wouldnt belive. Edmonton is big and all but I grew up my whole life in Halifax all my true friends that Ive been with since I was 5 are there, and all my family. Sure for the most part its ghetto like the darkside and what not, but theres also a good side. I love Halifax Im planning on moving back with my family. Much love Halifax. I miss you and everyone in Halifax.
I used to live in Halifax, Nova Scotia about 11 years ago. I was about 5 years old when I left there. Went to Duc de'anville elementary, or however you spell that school, haha. I remember bits and pieces. At 6 years old I moved to Mississauga, Ontario and lived there for 10 years. Now I'm in Philadelphia, PA in the United States. I'd have to say Mississauga is the best city I've ever lived in my whole life.
blech. makes halifax look like compton. little discouraging considering im going to college there in a year or so...you missed the best parts of the city.
Well... there is a compton st in Halifax. Between Robie and Windsor streets towards quinpool rd. If you didn't like this vid, why don't you check out The Trews and Rodney Atkins videos I have posted on my channel that both show 2 other completely different sides of halifax. And for good measure, watch y new guest vid titled - haters make me smile. Thx for the comment :)
If your going there for collage i got one thing to say. Don't go in Dartmouth if you dont know the way of the land. When i went there oh god my family was lost for like an hour in a half. becuase there very little street signs. but in cape breton theres street signs on every corner so i guess thats what im used to.
cool video , im from halifax , moved to alberta havent been back in 2 yrs , its an awesome city full of inspiration , thought provoking , crime , hard times and fucked up people haha . love it!
Its good, the music fits good too... I replied with my video i just made of MacDonald and MacKay Bridge... can you approve it otherwise i post it somewhere else.. but want to keep it local..
I miss Halifax a lot tonight, so I've been looking at a lot of YouTube videos. When I left Halifax I was sick of it, especially the fact that there were no jobs or opportunities for grads... but being here in Seoul, I actually find that the thing I miss most is Halifax and all the character it has. You honestly can't find that character anywhere else.
Im moving from Halifax to Waco Texas next month... In a strange way Waco has allot of character so I think Ive found a good place to lay my hat for a few years. Thanks for the comment!
Your right about the no job opportunities for grads. I moved here from Ontario after college, and I love it here...except I can't get a job without being over qualified and only making like $13.00. Halifax actually reminds me a lot of Stratford/Ottawa, Ontario, and even a little bit of Montreal, Quebec. It's beautiful here.
How funny. Are you still in Texas now? I'm from Dallas, but living in SF. I was thinking about visiting Nova Scotia before school picks back up. It's hot in Texas these days, I feel for you! :)
I'm from Halifx..can't come home for Christmas. The video actually panned past my sister's apt and I cried. If you think you haven't touched someone's heart today well you did. I cried. I am homesick but I wanted to thank you for letting me pretend I could walk up to her door and hug her at Christmas. This is from my heart.
You know what I find funny? I actually live in north end Dartmouth... and I DO have videos driving up and down Highfield, Pinecrest etc, perhaps I'll have to post'em some time... stayed tuned...
I did not find many people in Halifax friendly or welcoming. They seemed either cold, bored, uninterested or snobbish.
Otherwise the city Halifax itself was okay for a 2 day visit. Nothing really outstanding about the city. Nice harbour at least.
