U.S. Consulate Halifax

Félicitations !

Well deserved! We were pleased to attend this ceremony onboard the Marine nationale’s Dixmude Amphibious Helicopter Carrier during a recent port call in Halifax.

From the historic waterfront of Yarmouth to the vibrant Acadian communities, the Consul General recently wrapped up a fantastic visit to southwestern Nova Scotia!

🇺🇸🇨🇦This region highlights the deep, long-standing bonds between the United States and Atlantic Canada - rooted in shared maritime history, robust economic partnerships, and close community ties. During the trip, the Consul General met with local leaders, business owners, and community members to discuss regional growth, trade, and our 250th birthday.

⚓️Thank you to everyone in Yarmouth for the incredibly warm welcome. We are already looking forward to the next visit!
