Vibrant city with loads of history. Take the time to learn more about Halifax and you'll see it's significance in colonial North American history. The waterfront is also a lovely walk.
Halifax is a main city in Nova Scotia and entry point for people to move to Canada. Disability access is limited to what activities you wish to do.
