Yes, the Halifax Rifles are active again, and have been re-badged. The badge in question is not one for the activated regiment.
Phil, A clarification, re the white metal badge you mention was for the belt buckle. My example is E/W lugged, and it is proper that the armoured regiment cap badges be in white metal. The bronze finish badges were likely osd badges. That badge in the ebay auction may be an osd badge. The only thing that bothers me about that badge is the "flat" wire lugs. Not to say that makes it bad, but the large feet and flat wire lugs have been associated with repro badges in other situations.
