Le 1er avril 1996, le gouvernement de la municipalité régionale d'Halifax est créé afin de réduire les coûts d'administration et doter la région d'une gestion plus efficace. La fusion d'Halifax, de Dartmouth, de Bedford et du reste du comté d'Halifax sous l'administration d'un maire et de 23 conseillers municipaux pour gérer les affaires métropolitaines n'empêche cependant pas Halifax de conserver son identité propre. 1, record 1, French, - Municipalit%C3%A9%20r%C3%A9gionale%20d%27Halifax

Les noms d'origine grecque ou latine comme «Halifax» commencent par un «H» muet. On dit donc «la ville d'Halifax, la citadelle d'Halifax». Seul le titre du fondateur d'Halifax échappe à la règle : George Montagu Dunk est le second «comte de Halifax». 1, record 1, French, - Municipalit%C3%A9%20r%C3%A9gionale%20d%27Halifax
