Primaris REIT, which owns Halifax Shopping Centre, has submitted new development plans that encompass Halifax Transit's overcrowded Mumford terminal.
The plans call for an expanded, at-grade bus terminal rather than the underground design proposed by the mall's previous owner. (1/5)

ChatGPT is probably the biggest honey pot of willingly-turned over highly confidential information that has ever been created in human history.
