    I'm 69 (soon) and a tough marker, but would have to say, that was pretty good young fella. We'll be visiting in late Apr. and won't rely on the buses :) Thanks

    I lived in Halifax in the early to mid 2000s. I shared an apartment with an actor that would go on to play one of the cops on the Trailer Park Boys. It is a stunningly beautiful city, the food is incredible and the people r amazing. There is also lots to do. I still think the biggest con is how expensive it is. Was expensive when I lived there practically twenty years ago! Good video Justin😀

      Sorry I’m only seeing this comment now! It is for sure a beautiful city, I also actually got to serve a Moscow mule to bubbles on the trailer park boys before! Haha. Thanks for the support! It means a lot!

    My home town. Definitely agree with both the pros and cons. Although I currently live in Ontario to be near my granddaughter, I love Halifax and definitely think the pros outweigh the cons by a mile.

    I agree with you on all of your points except I never experienced any problems with the transit. The busses always seem to be on time, down to the minute, so I always thought the transit system was pretty good. The rising cost of houses isn't specific to Halifax... this is a problem across the country and in the US as well. These costs will continue to rise for the next couple of years.... everywhere. Halifax is expensive to live, but you can find amazing deals on rent... it just takes some time and effort. You definitely won't be better off financially if you more to Halifax, but like you said, your quality of life will be great.

      I agree with you entirely! It’s just expensive to live now a days, no matter where you are! Gas prices are one of the lowest in the country in Nova Scotia as well so that’s a big plus! Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to watch :)

    Are jobs and taxes better in New Branswick or Newfoundland than in Nova Scotia?

    • @justinlayden3617
      @justinlayden3617  ปีที่แล้ว

      I wouldn’t say so, as the biggest Atlantic province, job opportunities, and pay, would be higher in NS

      Halifax will definitely be cheaper, Ontario as a whole is very expensive for housing, and expenses in general, though, pay tends to be higher, taxes is lower, so you may make up for it

    Hi Justin 🙏
    I am planning to apply via PNP to move to Canada.
    My age is 34 and experience has been into digital marketing/ social media and project coordination in tourism companies and an NGO as well.
    Which province would have better opportunities for a job in this field?
    Would really appreciate your kind revert.
    Should i go for express entry or PNP?
