I was sorta expecting a thread for this to be on here this morning but I guess not. Seems like it will be a very nice injection for the Halifax economy though and lots of spin-off. I'm also glad I own a house here because I heard the housing market should benefit from it as well but I'm sure it will be a slow and steady increase really and not the ballooning they are seeing in Vancouver from the influx of immigration.

truthfully, i didn't expect this at all.
i was expecting it to end up in quebec, but since quebec voted NDP in the last election they were due for some payback from Harper. most of BC already voted for him so he didn't need to buy those votes. I guess we were next on the vote buying list.

I don't think Quebec was even eligible for the $25 billion contract. They were only in on the $8 and $2 billion dollar ones from what I understood.

I've got 11 1/2 years left to go before I can retire, I may just get to sail on some of these new ships

9 here till I retire.

I see your on the same plan Steve.
