Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia (Latin for "New Scotland", pronounced in English as /ˌnoʊvə ˈskoʊʃə/) (French: Nouvelle-Écosse; Scottish Gaelic: Alba Nuadh; Scots: New Alba) is one of Canada's three Maritime provinces, and one of the four provinces which form Atlantic Canada. Its provincial capital is Halifax. Nova Scotia is the second-smallest province in Canada, with an area of 55,284 square kilometres (21,300 sq mi), including Cape Breton and another 3,800 coastal islands. As of 2011, the population was 921,727, making Nova Scotia the second-most-densely populated province in Canada.

Etymology

Nova Scotia means New Scotland in Latin and is the recognized English language name for the province. In Scottish Gaelic, the province is called Alba Nuadh, which also simply means New Scotland. The province was first named in the 1621 Royal Charter granting the right to settle lands including modern Nova Scotia, Cape Breton Island, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and the Gaspé Peninsula to Sir William Alexander in 1632.

Halifax, Nova Scotia

Halifax (/ˈhælᵻfæks/), legally the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM), is the capital of the province of Nova Scotia, Canada. The metropolitan area had a population of 414,400 in 2014 with 297,943 in the urban area centred on Halifax Harbour. The regional municipality consists of four former municipalities that were amalgamated in 1996; Halifax, Dartmouth, Bedford, and the Municipality of Halifax County.

Halifax is considered a global city and is a major economic centre in eastern Canada with a large concentration of government services and private sector companies. Major employers and economic generators include the Department of National Defence, Dalhousie University, the Halifax Shipyard, various levels of government, and the Port of Halifax. Agriculture, fishing, mining, forestry and natural gas extraction are major resource industries found in the rural areas of the municipality. Halifax was ranked by MoneySense magazine as the fourth best place to live in Canada for 2012, placed first on a list of "large cities by quality of life" and placed second in a list of "large cities of the future", both conducted by fDi Magazine for North and South American cities. Additionally, Halifax has consistently placed in the top 10 for business friendliness of North and South American cities, as conducted by fDi Magazine.

Quotes:

Harry Donovan: Do you think the garbageman ain't in it for the money? 'Cause he sure as hell ain't in it for the garbage.

Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: You don't have any friends.::Harry Donovan: Oh yeah? Why's that?::Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: You're an ogre. You don't like people.::Harry Donovan: What?::Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: You don't like people.::Harry Donovan: Oh, I like people.::Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: Name one.::Harry Donovan: I like people.

Alastair Davies: I want you to paint me... a Rembrandt.::Harry Donovan: [pause] But only Rembrandt can paint Rembrandt.

Harry Donovan: I'm not a shoe-maker, and I don't work for slobs off the street. I work with people that I know. You can leave now.::Alastair Davies: It's a circular problem.::Harry Donovan: Now, do I have to knock your ass down the stairs?::Alastair Davies: No, no. Gentlemen. Um, we'll be staying at the Carlyle until, uh, Sunday. Think it over.::Harry Donovan: Watch your fingers.::[Harry slams the door shut as they leave]

Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: How do you like the book?::Harry Donovan: I don't like books.::Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: Just look at the pictures?::Harry Donovan: Yeah, ever since I was a little boy.

Harry Donovan: I just don't understand why you guys have to sit here and piss on other people, let alone Rembrandt.::Cafe intellectual: Professor Scheerding *proved* that the painting, The Man With The Golden Helmet, is just a cheap fake.::Prof. Scheerding: I'm sure you know that, uh, in 1930 there were over 800 *supposed* Rembrandts.::Harry Donovan: And now we're down to 241, thanks to you and your friends - and dropping. So, bully for you! Every schoolkid's favorite picture is now junk, because some self-appointed windbag has said so. You know, the problem is, in 10 years time there's not gonna be *any* Rembrandts. Just a big pile of *theses*.::Prof. Scheerding: We have said something to offend you?::Harry Donovan: Me? I'm never offended by flatulence. I just move away from its smell. Bye.

Harry Donovan: When are you gonna realize that all of this art crap is a fraud? Otherwise, how could the same picture be worth $10 million or zip based on, what, a signature? Rembrandt is priceless. Donovan is worthless. That's not art. That's autographs.

Harry Donovan: Do you have any money?::Prof. Marieke van den Broeck: Why, you want to steal it?::Harry Donovan: Yes.

The Next Two Weeks

Caught in a sea of your lies
I am grateful of being on the other side
So get ready to cross over
Let me take a moment to break
the trust with the ones that you love.
It's cold.
Is this loaded?
I fill me up to the brim
I don't want to feel anything or anyone at all.
You're gone
So come on, come on,
And let it go,
Sell yourself, but not to me,
This is the price you can't afford.
It makes me sick to know that one day
You'll buy a shirt from my band.
'cause it's the latest trend.
Your belt buckle says that you're hard
But you're hard when you're not alone.
Let me take a moment to break the trust with the ones that you love.
It's cold.
Is this loaded?
I fill me up to the brim
I don't want to feel anything or anyone at all.
You're gone
So come on, come on,
And let it go,
Sell yourself, but not to me,
This is the price you can't afford.
'cause we're not scared anymore.
Put your wallet away.
Put your wallet away, it's useless.
We made it, now we're taking it back.
Put your wallet away.
Put your wallet away, it's useless. (x4)
Those eyes will haunt me for the
