Beyond The Wine
A Balanced Lifestyle: the Urban and Rural Mix
Nova Scotia is a wonderful place to live. Surrounded almost completely by the ocean, its climate is refreshing and crisp, with mild winters and pleasant, languid summers.
Nova Scotians enjoy a balanced lifestyle. The cost of living is low and quality of life high. You can explore a vibrant capital city and great nightlife yet within a short drive enjoy deep wilderness, tap maple syrup, sea kayak or bird watch. Golfers play on world-class courses, cyclists and runners share breathtaking countryside and the more sedate cozy up to the fire and enjoy a glass of wine Nova Scotia-made, of course!
But Nova Scotia is not all play. It boasts world-class research and innovation within science, technology and health care companies and institutions. We have a long history of agriculture, an active defence and aerospace industry and an emerging financial sector. Small business and tourism also continue to help drive our economy. Nova Scotia offers a well-educated workforce with 11 universities and 13 community college campuses. We also have one of the most cost effective business environments in Canada.
