Great news! Everyone is very friendly in Nova Scotia I am sure you will have no problem settling here.
Look on kijiji Halifax http://halifax.kijiji.ca/ for places to rent and you could place a wanted ad on there too.
Great shopping centres Bayer Lake and http://www.dartmouthcrossing.com/
Good luck with your move.
