Don't be silly -- he said exclusive tourist town. Meaning that it would rely mostly on its looks to do so. St. Augustine, FL, or Carcassonne, France, come to mind (they're both more extreme example than a homogeneous, historic, perfectly preserved Halifax would likely be, but you get the point).
Paris, London, NYC, Tokyo are major "tourist towns" and are all much bigger than Vancouver, but they're FAR from relying only on tourism to exist.
