According to the BBC, there is a richer mix of religions, languages and cultural practices in Halifax today than ever before, and Arabic is now one of the most common spoken languages. As recently as the 2011 census, there were almost 6,000 Arabic speakers living in Halifax, most of whom who are monolingual speakers. Many of these Arabic speakers are part of the province's Lebanese population, but a growing number are from other countries, like Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Kuwait. About 1,500 Syrian refugees also arrived in Nova Scotia, boosting the number of Muslims and Arabic-speaking people in the region. Thus, learning the language will come in handy if you intend to connect with any of these communities on a deeper level. It is also crucial if you would like to understand their cultures and religions, or to explore new professional opportunities only available to those fluent in Arabic.
