Halifax Index 2021
2020 was unlike anything any of us have seen or could have predicted. Coming into 2020, Halifax was in a strong position, making progress towards Halifax’s long-term Economic Growth Plan vision.

However, Halifax has shown continued resilience throughout this difficult year and there are signs that economic recovery is well underway.

Halifax lived through a tale of two years. In 2019 we saw strong economic growth, a growing population, and record business confidence. Labour force, employment, international student, and youth retention indicators were all very positive. We began 2020 with well-deserved optimism that it would be Halifax’s best year ever.
