GROW YOUR BUSINESS IN THE CITY HUB OF ATLANTIC CANADA TOGETHER WITH METROPOLITAN MOVERS
Halifax is the capital city of Nova Scotia, sometimes called “Warden of the North” for its historic military role. Today it is a major regional centre for Atlantic Canada’s economy. Since 2016 Halifax can boast a steadily strong population growth rate of 1.6%. A Royal Canadian Navy shipbuilding project will create additional jobs through 2030, stimulating another wave of newcomers. By the way, CFB Halifax is Canada’s largest naval base and the nation’s largest military base in the number of personnel. No need to say that the government is the largest employer in the City. It is worth mentioning that Nova Scotia attracts thousands of tourists every year to capture the breathtaking view of migrating whales jumping from the dark Atlantic Ocean waters.
