Nova Scotia’s new immigration plan 2022-2023

In comparison to 2021, there has been an increase of 1,573 in allocation numbers. In 2022, the total number of allocations was set at 5,430 Canada immigration applicants.

“Nova Scotia is a special place and we are excited that more and more people see a future for themselves and their families here. Population growth is vital to our economic success. We have been preparing for growth, working with employers, communities, and settlement organizations to get ready for more people to call Nova Scotia home.”
Jill Balser, Minister of Labor, Skills, and Immigration
