Talk:Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

message: :"Dartmouth is also commonly called the 'Darkside', in reference to the fact that its city lights look, from a distance, darker than Halifax's."
:In 2002 I attended a community forum in Dartmouth where several residents mentioned their opposition to the slang "darkside" being used to refer to their former city - it seems that this has a double entendre, where people from Dartmouth, Cherry Brook, Westphal and the Prestons see it as being a possibly racist reference.  I wonder if it should stay in Wikipedia?  Cheers,Plasma east 04:32, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I basically disagree. It's not a racist reference at all. Its probably more racist to even THINK it's a racist reference. I've never, ever heard it used in that context. Danielfong 12:33, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

text: I too have never ever heard it used in a racist fashion, and is much more commonly (always) used to describe the amount of nightlife available to the city of lakes in the city of lakes. Which is next to nil. mike1979 12:08, 22 Nov 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Darkside represent - grew up in Creighton Park, Woodlawn, Penhorn Lake, and Darkside was because, you know, it was the early 80s, and it was way cooler to be in the Dark Side, with Darth Vader....  WayeMason 02:19, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I know there is a footnote saying Darmouth's population is 97K, but the page says "Dartmouth community."  The other footnote says 65K.  I grew up there, it was always 60-65K, there is no way 32K people moved into the old city of Dartmouth between 2001-2006.   I think that the second footnote is about Dartmouth, Cole Harbour and parts east....WayeMason 01:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Not exactly sure what the issue is, he (User:Warrenwesson) says Dartmouth is a former city, but what is it now? Is it not still a community?
I've known Gloria McCluskey for over thirty years and love her to death but without a Wikipedia article (as have the rest) I can't agree with her being included as "famous".
"Dartmouth has a significant economic sector" and "Dartmouth's future looks bright." (According to whom? Wikipedia?)
District 2 is not Dartmouth. The riding runs from Cherry Brook to Ecum Secum according to the website of the Councillor (Hendsbee).
