Anyways In the evening we went out at the water front and checked out and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about seems to me they were all there for the fireworks and guess what it only lasted for like 10 minutes but yeah ("The whole crowd was Pumped :P(you wish)") the only one who was cheering was our group. And the reason for this was that they don't allow you to use firecrackers at most of the places around halifax concerned about the people's safety. I have seen better in India on Diwali even kids are professionals firing up a cracker and the session lasts through out the day and in the evening the whole cloud is soo polluted that the only thing you can smell is burnt matches and gun powder. But yeah i am happy that they atleast don't waste soo much money here even though this isn't a poverty stricken nation. I mean for God sakes there are people dying in your country they could give that money away as donation maybe it will do someone some good. Its like blowing your money off in smoke for no reason.
