Smile Nova Scotia Expats

Hello All

Our permanent resident visa is about to be issued (hooray) via the skilled worker route.
I was hoping for some vibes about living and working in Nova Scotia as it is most likely our destination.We'd love to here from people who've actually settled there, or came home.
Any info, good or bad would be much appreciated.
We're planning a couple of trips there as soon as we get our passports back from immigration.

Colin and Laura.

Well Colin you shouldn't have a problem getting a job with all the construction that is going on in Halifax and Dartmouth. I have been here to long to think of going back but some of the new immigrants don't really come on here anymore, it seems they are getting on with their lives. You just have to give it a try.
