Yes.
The shopping alone isn't enough, as New Brunswick and Nova Scotia are fairly parallel in retail. I think it's fair to say that places like Montreal and Toronto would be shopping destinations.

telling you that a gay-friendly dance club open until 3:30/4am is a very,
very big deal for a city to have when absolutely no other city in the region has it. I know so many gay people from NB that will come to Halifax not even for the entire weekend, but for just one night -- all because the gay bar is open until late.
Since you're trying to make this seem completely insignificant, I'll grant you the assumption: this is just one bar and it's no big deal. The question still stands as to why we're saying no even to this small amount of business.
And can someone please bring about a revelation as to why in the hell Gottingen's residential character is being protected from 4am drag queens?
Oh wait..
