Nova Scotia Background Information
Nova Scotia, located on Canada's south-eastern coast, is the second
smallest province in Canada yet most populous province in the Maritimes; making it the
second most densely populated in the country.
Nova Scotia was home to the Mi'kmaq people when the first European
colonists arrived. In 1604, French colonists established the first permanent European
settlement north of Florida, at Port Royal; founding what became known as Acadia.
