I live in Halifax and we typically walk most places - even in the winter. Given there is no one on the sidewalks I assume it's very early in the morning in March, possibly on a Sunday. It can be quiet for sure, but often there are tons of people out walking. It' s pretty vibrant city.
I love your beautiful city somehow I know it well but I've never been there many nights I cry myself to sleep watching the snowy days God bless Halifax NOVA SCOTIA
@@tednguyen8310 Hi Ted - I do not disagree in the least. The video makes the town look a bit sad doesnt it? It's considerably better in person- depending on where your are in the city. This said, the city's urban planners have made a slew of bad decisions over the years that have impacted it's vibrancy.
Our party of three visited Halifax in 2016 and had a marvelous time! So many highlights but I do recall an Irish pub that served excellent food and featured some Gaelic music! Definitely, most certainly... we will return!
omg who cares if there’s nobody out walking, i live in Halifax and there’s always people walking outside in downtown Halifax. Im guessing it’s early in the morning on a Sunday or something. But to sum it up who cares if there’s nobody walking, as long as it’s a nice and clean city it’s worth living there. (Not trying to offend anyone)
Wow that's fantastic. But the city looks little dreary in this time of year. I mean I feel a little depressed to see those bare tree branches. Normally it should've been spring now. I've followed the way you drove on Google street map and the city looked better there possibly owning to the sunny weather. I see you started somewhere form Barrington street.
Correct, I started at the intersection of Barrington and Cornwallis streets. I've found the weather to be mild here, at least compared to the other cities I've lived in (Toronto, Regina, and New York City). It's December 12 and, so far this autumn, I've yet to see any snow stick to the ground on the peninsula.
Wow, I know they’re both sorta in the same part of the continent, but Halifax looks alot like a more tame version of Boston Massachusetts...its even got the faded lines on the pavement, horse-and-buggy roads that are paved over, construction projects everywhere, etc.
Hollis has certainly changed since the war, my house is gone was across from the cnr station above a drug store, trolleys ran the length of Hollis cost a nickle, much nicer looking now though. nice video
It would be nice if there is a fast-forward version of this video. It would be nice if you can show the major street names or the direction you are going.
hi i like your videos can i just ask what do you use, to hold the google pixel becuz it looks stable your answer would be much appreciated you earned a sub
Reading the comments I'd bumped on Garbage Day's one. Why some people have the need of being that rude? I've lived and worked n Halifax for two years and I never found this city ugly as Garbage Day finds it. Halifax is a beautiful small city (compared with Toronto where I'm presently living know). As a matter of fact I still miss the easy ways to get around and the marvelous Waterfront. I miss the lobsters one can buy for almost nothing during Christmas time right on the street from the back of pick-up trucks. I miss the pace of life,the affordable housing prices and the speed of all the services that in big cities are always a burden. Due to my age (I'm 72) and a lot of different health issues, I know well I couldn't make it in there with my tiny pension; although as soon as my wife (who was born in Bridgwater,an hour away from Halifax) retires, my plan is to move back there. Nice video of downtown Halifax,though you missed Victoria Road where we use to live. Greetings from Toronto. ;
My god this is depressing I live here this is obviously like 6am on a Sunday at a dreary time of year and you didn't even drive a couple streets over springgarden road which IS down town Halifax most vibrant street in the province and you missed it!!!??!!
It was 4 p.m. I prefer to shoot my videos when there is less traffic; viewers get to see more of the area in a shorter amount of time. This 13-minute video wasn't meant to show everything, but it showed a significant chunk of downtown Halifax. Also, I have two other videos that show that road by car (th-cam.com/video/6TrMEAEV400/w-d-xo.html) and from the sidewalk (th-cam.com/video/G6SwizumF2s/w-d-xo.html).
We have traffic here. During the week, rush hour, summer weekends, still nothing like Toronto. Normal weekday, non rush hour would be like midnight traffic in Toronto. Or close to it.
Garbage Day this is a few religious people speaking amongst themselves, not bothering anyone, even wishing each other well, and you have the audacity to say such a thing? If you don’t like something, keep scrolling.
you usually can't drive for the people. endless crowds all day and late into the night that infamously do not stop for cars. you gotta drive -5 miles an hour to avoid hitting someone. the downtown is so densely packed with bars you were basically in the middle of a giant block party on weekend nights even in -30 weather and everyone would congregate on the same corner when the bars shut down in the early morning. This is probably a couple hours after that, weekend morning everyones still in bed id say.
I am thinking of moving there, they say it has nice weather compared to Toronto Montreal but if this is the reality, I will be in depression and would feel so lonely and isolated
Halifax weather is rainier and doesn't get as hot. They get wicked snow, too. The weather isn't better compared to Toronto or Montreal. It's also a much, much smaller city. Everything shown in the video is the core, the rest is lower density. This was probably filmed on a Sunday on the off-season, so there were no tourists and literally, most things are closed on Sundays.
This video looks better and is newer th-cam.com/video/Tv1-KLJVl54/w-d-xo.html, it seem that around public garden is more popular. I'm not from Canada. I'm looking information too.

good to read that. in the video the city looks a little sad.
It's 4pm on a Sunday. Depressing...

looks kinda boring

Can I connect with you please?
You're kidding right ? The city is ugly as f...
Lovely city. Been twice to see my family. I feel homesick watching this and I am not even from there. I was in tears leaving.
Great video helping me to explore this nice city before reaching it!
Nice, I've always wanted to visit New Scotland. I live in the original Scotland :)
Well, you should come by anytime, although you live in the original one, this one is newer like brand new in box. Pay us a visit anytime chap! :)
I'm thinking of moving there, I'm from England! Looks beautiful!
The road signs are exactly like in Quebec !! I got to Ontario and there it was different
I had it pictured as a smaller city. It does look really nice.
Hey it is relaxing to watch this :-) I am yor 584nd subscriber, i have just 3 xD

I was there 15 years ago...so peacefull and quiete
Hollis has certainly changed since the war, my house is gone was across from the cnr station above a drug store, trolleys ran the length of Hollis cost a nickle, much nicer looking now though. nice video
thanks..any new videos ?
Beautiful Halifax downtown
Thank you!🎁
i live in kitchener waterloo ON its kinda similar to KW and i can assume why no traffic must be sunday/holiday early in the morning
That's correct; it was shot at 4 p.m. on Sunday.
It would be nice if there is a fast-forward version of this video.
It would be nice if you can show the major street names or the direction you are going.
Thanks buddy, I missed being in halifax,left in 2014
why did you leave are you somewhere better now(don't mind me asking)?
Quality video but I noticed no people walking!
It is because this is a 1990 ps1 game
No cars either so probably very early on the weekend.
Gostei. Vou conhecer no próximo mês. ☺️🌻
Cute town. I hope live here some day
hi i like your videos
can i just ask what do you use, to hold the google pixel becuz it looks stable
your answer would be much appreciated
you earned a sub
Thanks. I don't recall what exact mount it was, but it wasn't anything special; the phone's stabilization basically did all the work.
Great little city
There's no snow at all like Montreal and Toronto, still no people no cars... Is it a ghost-town or dead city?
the highway and downtown part don't seem to be as busy as Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal
Where are the people or it was in early morning?
According to the video file's data, this was taken at 6:01 p.m.
Nice video! Would have been cool to hear your comments on the city.
Nader Is Alive Thank you for your comment. I'll consider it. What do you suggest I talk about?
You can talk about the places you are passing through.
Maybe about the life in Halifax!
Does it easy to immigrate after graduate in halifax ?
Here's one. That city is ugly as fuck.
Where is everyone 😕

They have been improving the waterfront. New boardwalks, piers, chairs and so on. Housing prices and rent have been crazy in the last year.
Is this in Virginia?
No, this is Halifax in Nova Scotia, Canada.
My god this is depressing I live here this is obviously like 6am on a Sunday at a dreary time of year and you didn't even drive a couple streets over springgarden road which IS down town Halifax most vibrant street in the province and you missed it!!!??!!

Anybody remember 'The Stroll' ? I had alot of good girlfriends work'n there. Those were the days.
Muy bonito!!!!
I'm from Halifax :))
is it really reconstruction everywhere?
@@sciaszenka3376 Im late to the party. But yes, constantly
it was nice to go on a drive during a non business day to be able to just drive around and not get hung up on traffic tie ups !
Reconstruction is everywhere?
I am from Toronto and I can't believe how little traffic there is. Toronto is bumper to bumper 24?7
We have traffic here. During the week, rush hour, summer weekends, still nothing like Toronto. Normal weekday, non rush hour would be like midnight traffic in Toronto. Or close to it.
great more video

Hi Steve, I have few Halifax driving vids on my channel if interested.
Geez! It's like a ghost town. 😨
