editDefinitions
editHalifax can be defined in a number of different ways. The Halifax Regional Municipality, also commonly known as HRM, is the two tier, county wide municipal government created in 1996. The urban sprawl of the conurbation — or Halifax Urban Area — covers approximately one third of this area, but contains almost three quarters of the population of the HRM. Beyond this is rural Halifax County.
At HRM's center is the pre-amalgamation City of Halifax, which while no longer an incorporated municipality, it continues as a planning area and where municipal by-laws have yet to be merged, and also a place name and a provincially designated metropolitan area. The old city has been divided into two municipal planning areas, the Halifax Peninsula, governed by the Peninsula Council, and Mainland Halifax, governed by the Chebucto Council.
The population in 2006 was 372,679;[1] the urban area of HRM had a population of 282,924,[2] giving the municipality the largest urban area in the Maritimes and largest population centre in Canada east of Québec City.
Confusion over appropriate use of place names and designations is further complicated by the Halifax Regional Municipality itself, which uses different definitions for urban core, urban area and community depending on the municipal department[3], [4], [5]. The government also defines the region as a "community of communities" and preserves all pre-amalgamation place names and community identities. As a result, while some citizens refer to the entire HRM, or the urban area, as Halifax, others refuse to refer to any older, formerly separate communities by using the catch-all name of Halifax.

Halifax's urban area grew considerably during and after the World War II era and more recently since the discovery of oil and gas of Nova Scotia's Atlantic Coast in the late 1970s. Amalgamated into one municipal government by the provincial government in 1996, the future plan for urban development and land use is now being determined through the region wide planning process HRM By Design.
While the Halifax Regional Police, the Metro Transit public transit and some other services are not available throughout the Halifax Regional Municipality, some other services, such as the Halifax Regional Fire Department and Halifax Public Library, do service the entire region.
Unlike most capital cities, Halifax's status as the capital of Nova Scotia has never been granted or confirmed officially—by statute or in written form. Its position as the capital has formed through constitutional convention and usage, making its position as de facto capital a part of Nova Scotia's unwritten conventions of common law.
