Halifax Real Estate: Nova Scotia Information (part
3)
For years the Nova Scotia economy depended heavily on
the fishing industry, but today, with depleting fish stocks and government
quotas, the economy has had to diversify. Tourism, forestry and coal
mining are core Nova Scotian industries.
Nova Scotia's capital city, Halifax, is also its largest. Its deep,
ice-free harbour with close proximity to New York and the Saint Lawrence
Seaway has helped establish the Port of Halifax as Canada's busiest
east coast shipping center. Canada's largest east-coast naval base is
situated in Halifax Harbour.
