The pearl of the east coast. Where summer starts only after its finished squeezing out every last drop of North Americas precipitation . A place of security where we build the mighty floating war machines capable of amazing amounts death, and all these years only one accident. A history of diversity which is mostly preserved without prejudice with the likes of great Edward Cornwallis, and places like Africaville. The best little gas-station for all those modest cruise ships, not to mention the wonderful tours Harbor-Hopper provides for our guests while they fill their tanks. They must just love the fragrance of our waterfront! I know I do, there is a little bit of all of us down there. The world must be impressed with the city’s unique economic prosperity through the relationship of our hardworking police-force and generous skateboarders/bicyclists. It’s future secured with higher priced education, solid value of the minimum wage and strong ironfisted leadership. That’s why when I’m having a quiet walk down prosperous Barrington street, and the friendly Harbor-Hopper comes barreling past, I smile, wave and wonder… WTF!

WTF are you talking about? Is there a point here?
In summary, OP is pro-Harbour Hopper and anti-tickets for failure to wear helmets, among other things.
In shorter summary, OP is drunk and/or stoned.
do they still moon the harbour hopper on citadel hill…i think it was the highlight of the tour
great post!
I think the OP is trying to say that Halifax is shit. It certainly smells that way.
I think the point was… cruise ships run on gas? What?
moon the harbour hoopers!!! thats awesome!
OP is trying to tell us what sucks about Halifax. OP is bang-on, especially with “prosperous Barrington Street”. Props, OP.
“Africaville?” Really?
Africville – the black community who resided in the area now known as Seaview Park under the A. Murray MacKay bridge on the Halifax side. The city destroyed Africville in the early 60s.
This just spelled sarcasm right after ”Pearl of east coast”.
Hey
Thx for all your comments. Especially TTFN for enlightening all of us about “Africville” (which I miss spelt.. Srry)

i liked it
I think “mooning the harbour hopper on citadel hill” might be a bad idea.
Also, I think it was The Coast who initiated the whole thing about mooning it whenever you saw it, this was 7 years ago? maybe more? I think the idea is lame. Every city has its tacky tourist side. I barf a little every time I bike past “Peggy of the Cove”….
I love it!
That was a nice kick in the balls to Halifax OP, well said.
