George Montague-Dunk, Earl of Halifax, had been instrumental in obtaining British government approval for a projected town. And so in his honour the new founded village was named Halifax. Halifax was also the site of the largest military fort in the Empire. It was constructed to help protect British North America from the Americans. An earlier fort was built to help protect all the British colonies including the "13" from the French.
Halifax for a time was the premier city of Canada. It then became Montreal, and to-day it is now Toronto.

This is down town Halifax on the water front.
.Here is the famous Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia lighthouse. It is a very beautiful light-house and the ocean views are amazing.
I hope you all enjoyed my favourite city in the world from a few pics I presented to-day.
