Nova Scotia Travel Guide
The character of NOVA SCOTIA has been conditioned by the whims of
the North Atlantic weather, a climate so harsh in wintertime that the seaboard Nova
Scotian colonists of the eighteenth century earned the soubriquet " Bluenoses
" for their abil-ity to stand the cold. The descendants of these hardened sailors do
not typify the whole province, however. The farmers of the Annapolis Valley and
their Acadian neighbours were quite distinct from the mariners of the Atlantic coast, and
different again were the mixed bag of emigrants who came to work the coal mines and steel
mills of central Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island from the 1880s - differences that
remain noticeable today.
