Coming From Ontario
There are many reasons folks choose to pull up stakes and move to Nova Scotia. For some, it is to get out of the 'rat race' - the congestion, hustle and bustle of big city life. Others are choosing to get closer to nature and to re-invest themselves in their (new) communities. Perhaps you have the luxury of being able to work remotely and are no longer anchored to an office cubicle.
