Q: Around halifax...near bus stations...
A: The Halifax Hostel on Barrington Street is right down the street from the Bus / Train station. It's probably the cheapest place to stay that will be safe and clean. Here's a link: http://www.hihostels.ca/NovaScotia/en/index.aspx?sortcode=2.15 You might also want to make contact with MISA - that's the Metropolitan Immigrant Settlement Association. They offer a number of resources for new immigrants. Here's the link: http://www.misa.ns.ca/Family&Cultural_Awareness/index.htm Good luck!
