The Nova Scotia Remembrance Day Act requires most stores in Halifax to close on November 11. The act bans the sale of goods and most paid work for the entire day in the province. Exceptions include drugstores, gas stations, restaurants, hotels, hospitals, and public transit services. Furthermore, alcohol sales and performances are prohibited before noon on Remembrance Day.
