It is amusing how he compared Halifax's development process to Quebec City and St. John's, which are slower than average. He also doesn't mention that specific major developments tend to get tied up for years. Many development agreements are granted for very minor projects and the average time taken is not particularly meaningful.

He also fails to mention other factors like tax rates. The government controls these and they eat into the competitiveness of the downtown versus suburban office parks, which in the past have been heavily subsidized by the city.
