The Halifax Regional Municipality strongly encourages users of its social media sites to respect their fellow users.
Comments that are offensive, rude in tone, or abusive will not be tolerated. Comments, discussion posts, wall posts and any other user-posted content that is deemed inappropriate by the municipality, in its sole discretion, will be removed from the page.

Sharing third-party content
The municipality thanks those submitting requests but reserves the right to not share information from third-party organizations on its social media channels. If information is shared from a third-party (e.g. Share function on Facebook or Retweet function on Twitter) this does not constitute municipal endorsement of the event, initiative or organization. Note: The municipality is not responsible for the content or accuracy of third-party information shared via its social media channels.
