Living in Halifax, my sense is that Saint John is decidedly second-rate.
;-) It has some air problems in the summer due to the oil and paper
plants.

Halifax can offer Pier 21 right where the ships dock, the immigration
museum. Worth a visit. Lots of really good restaurants downtown and
shopping along Spring Garden Road. Avoid the obvious tourist places like
Murphy's on the Water and Salty's. The Halifax Citadel is a federal
historic site at the top of the hill and worth a trip. Then there is the
requisite visit to Peggy's Cove, although I'd be tempted to pass on that.
Just take the boardwalk along the waterfront and take it all in.
