Halifax gets some neat European cruise lines like TUI and Aida, I remember seeing a TUI Cruise ship during my vacation to Charlottetown last year and didn't even know TUI Group had a cruiseline

It's a pretty incredible photograph for Halifax. Looks like the CH-CYCLONE from the 406 Squadron at 12 Wing Shearwater took the photograph as the HMCS Charlottetown, HMCS Halifax and HMCS Toronto sailed out in formation into the Atlantic Ocean enroute to Reykjavik, Iceland.

That Halifax picture is stunning!! I wonder why they are so popular for cruises, is it mostly Trans-Atlantic tourism or is it an actual destination in itself? Either way, good work Halifax!

P.S. The City class warships still look sexy, even after 25 years!

Combination of both. Eastern Canada receives a lot of cruise ships from the US, typically from Boston and New York. Some of the cruise ships will do a Portland-Saint John-Halifax-Cape Breton-PEI/Montreal kind of set up.

Edmonton's really killing it with proposals....Great pic of Calgary! Contrast between Downtown's (Calgary) and the lack of density in the surrounding areas.
