 | | If, prior to Confederation, there had indeed been a history of the flag being "proudly borne by many of our famous ships" surely this local group, with its clear interest in the subject, would have been aware of it. |  | | The assertion did not originate with Sec State; it goes well back in the annals of the subject. |  | | To what extent was the flag, as one author claims hyperbolically, "proudly borne by many of our famous ships prior to Confederation"? |

| | Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | It can be argued that HRM's recent voting pattern has actually placed the provincial (and federal) NDP or social-democratic politics in general, into the political mainstream for the province and the Maritimes as a whole. |  | | In the last three provincial elections over 50% of the population of HRM has voted for the provincial New Democratic Party, placing the region's voters outside the mainstream of provincial politics in outlying more rural areas which are split between a Liberal/Conservative voting pattern. |  | | Originally named Jipugtug, or Chebucto - which means "biggest harbour" - by the Mi'kmaq people who lived there, the town of Halifax was founded as a British military outpost by General Edward Cornwallis and some 2500 settlers on July 9, 1749. |
