Way to go, Aaron! I'll be starting my dissertation next year, so I'm about three years away from a very similar process (in the English camp - early modern literature, specifically), and I already know how bleak the process is and how fraught the market has become. Dalhousie is definitely a great university, and you should enjoy the year (or more) in Canada!
