This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) People first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. This October is Mi’kmaq History Month, for more information on Mi’kmaq history and events, please see: https://mikmaqhistorymonth.ca/mikmaq-history/. For people new to the area, it can be very confusing when someone refers to Halifax, Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM), or one of the many regions. HRM is a large geographical area, about the size of Prince Edward Island, which covers various combined municipalities that were previously separate. Referring to HRM or Halifax could mean any number of places and is very non-specific, including the following general regions: Bedford-Sackville, Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, Downtown Halifax, Eastern Shore, Musquodoboit Valley, North End, Peggy’s Cove, and the West End. These regions can be further broken down to any number of smaller neighbourhoods. When using transportation around HRM, keep these regions in mind when thinking about where you are and where you want to go. 2 Transportation from Halifax Stanfield International Airport to Halifax 1) Halifax Transit operates its MetroX service from Halifax Stanfield International Airport to downtown Halifax, and vice versa.
