I too have noticed that some of the more active posters no longer live in the area. We may not have moved away by choice and are still genuinely interested in what's going on in our former home.
Some of us who no longer live in Halifax, moved away for economic reasons such as a lack of job opportunities in our field......
If there had been a job available at the VGH (or Infirmary) when I finished my residency, I would likely still be living in Halifax today.
If you don't want people to move away, then make sure that the city is progressive and economically viable and people would stay!! I think people like Bousquet don't comprehend this (or don't care). They would just prefer the small comfortable Halifax that they knew in their childhood. It must give them a warm and fuzzy feeling...
There are literally thousands of people who did move away who may have preferred to live in Halifax, but couldn't. Just imagine the lost opportunities due to this exodus.
This by the way doesn't mean that I don't like living in Moncton....
