This tool is designed to aid pharmacists, primary care and mental health specialists, and others when helping people with mental health and addiction problems find needed mental health care, support, and related services and information. Whatever the situation, whether it acute or long standing, use of this or other mental health and addictions navigational resources is an important step forward in supporting someone in our community’s journey toward recovery. A pharmacist, physician, and other health providers can help the person take it. How do I use this tool? The Navigator contains information about mental health and addictions services and community supports throughout the province of Nova Scotia. It is organized by district health authority as indicated by the table of contents (page 4). Important province-wide resources can be found at the beginning of this document (pages 2 & 6) and on the second page (see Principle Resources) for each district health authority section. For a geographical map of Nova Scotia’s district health authorities refer to map (page 3). Nova Scotia 211 In 2013, Nova Scotia introduced telephone (211) and web-based service (http://ns.211.ca) that is organized to help people across the province find local community and social services. Many of the included services in the database directly help people with mental health and addictions problems. The site continues to be populated with services, programs, and groups and will be continually updated as new and changing information becomes available. We have included the following access information at the beginning of each district health authority’s section.

This almighty being was of such gargantuan proportions that the smallest province, a province of Nova Scotia was his bed and Prince Edward Island his pillow. larger-than-life demigod, Ancient legends of the mythical creator live on, and there’s no better place Lto explore them than the spectacular Glooscap Trail in northwestern Nova Scotia. over-the-top scenery and The trail stretches 227 miles, all told, but our itinerary focuses on a 125-mile the world’s highest tides segment between Truro and Joggins. It’s a laid-back, mostly coastal drive, beloved by those in the know. set the stage for RV The Mi’kmaq (pronounced Meeg-mah), an indigenous people native to travels on a grand scale Canada’s Maritime Provinces and the Gaspé Peninsula of Quebec, once lived freely in this region. Silas Tertius Rand, a Baptist missionary who traveled among the Mi’kmaq in the mid- to late-1800s, documented their stories featuring the heroic Glooscap. He “lived like other men ... but he never died, never was sick, never grew old,” wrote Rand. “He could do anything and everything.” Traveling RVers can learn more about Mi’kmaq myths and culture, and stand — dwarfed — beneath the demigod’s towering bronze likeness, at the Glooscap Heritage Centre, less than 5 miles from Truro in Millbrook.

    Aims 6Th Annual High School Report Card (Rc6)

    AIMS 6TH ANNUAL HIGH SCHOOL REPORT CARD (RC6) Nova Scotia High Schools Two years ago, a ruling by Nova Scotia’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Review Officer confirmed that the release of student achievement data was in the public interest. However, AIMS is still not able to report locally assigned exam grades or attendance in Nova Scotia schools, as some boards are still not able to access this information or simply refuse to do so. Following the closing of Queen Elizabeth High School in Halifax, last year’s top ranked school, we were assured a new school at the top of the rankings. Cape Breton Highlands Academy in Terre Noire jumped from third place in RC5 to take over the number one spot in the province, maintaining an ‘A-’ grade. Cape Breton Highlands was the only school in Nova Scotia to achieve an ‘A’ grade, with Charles P. Allen in Bedford also maintaining its ‘B+’ grade from last year to claim second spot in the rankings. Dalbrae Academy in Southwest Mabou saw its grade drop from an ‘A-’ to a ‘B+’ but still finished third overall. Several schools saw improvements of two grade levels. Rankin School of the Narrows and Pictou Academy-Dr. T. McCulloch School both improved from a ‘C+’ to a ‘B’ and finished eighth and ninth overall, respectively. Canso Academy (‘C’ to ‘B-’) and Annapolis West Education Centre (‘C’ to ‘B-’) also improved by two grade levels. Springhill Junior-Senior High School was the only school to see its grade decline more than two levels, falling from a ‘B-’ to a ‘C-’.

Martin, Language Unlimited, under contract to the Atomic Energy Control Board. ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment in the Maritime Provinces requires input from not just historical, but also geological sources. A detailed search through published and unpublished geological literature reveals many examples - some probable, some possible — of neotectonic movement in the area. Examples range in tectonic significance from those that reflect exaggerated local imbalance to those that signify deep-seated stress. Evidence for neotectonism in the Maritimes is multidisciplined. It includes deformation in bedrock and quaternary deposits, and regional warping. Recent movement also is indicated by changes in relative sea level, in situ stress fields and geodetic fluctuations. Finally, and most unequivocally, neotec- tonism in the Maritime Provinces is manifested as the seismic events that have sporadically affected the area throughout its recent geological history, and continue up to the present day. RESUME L1evaluation du risque de seisme dans les provinces maritimes necessite l'ap- port de sources non seulement historiques, mais geologiques. Une recherche detaillee de la documentation publiee et inedite en geologie a revele plu- sieurs exemples probables ou possibles de mouvement neotectonique dans la region.

In January 2008, the Province of Nova Scotia announced that Minas Basin Pulp and Power Co Ltd. had been awarded the opportunity to construct a tidal energy testing and research facility in the Minas Basin, known as the Fundy Tidal Energy Demonstration Facility. This Facility will be managed by a non-profit corporation called FORCE. The objectives of this study are twofold; - to undertake a broad MEKS study for the Bay of Fundy Phase I Area as it may relate to future renewable energy projects i.e. wind, tidal and wave, specifically in Phase 1 area of the Bay of Fundy ( as identified in MGC Proposal - Minas Channel and Minas Basin), and - to undertake a more focused MEKS review specific to the Fundy Tidal Energy Demonstration Project area which would consider the land and water area potentially affected by the project, identify what is the Mi’kmaq traditional use activity that has or is currently taking place within the Project Site and Study Area and what Mi’kmaq ecological knowledge presently exists in regards to the Project Site and Study Area.

    COMMUNITY REPORT 2019 VISITOR EXIT SURVEY TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Visitation by Region 3 Capture Rate 8 Detailed Visitation 17 Community Visitation Tables 25 INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of the community visitation section of the 2019 Nova Scotia Visitor Exit Survey (VES). The 2019 VES report is based on 3,283 questionnaires that were completed by overnight visitors aged 18 years or older who stayed at least one night in Nova Scotia during the calendar year of 2019. Questionnaires were completed using an online survey. Visitors exiting the province through the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, Digby, Caribou, or Highway 104 (Cobequid Pass) received a VES Response Card. The Survey Response Card invited non-resident visitors who had spent at least one night in Nova Scotia to complete the VES. Data were weighted by origin and mode of travel to reflect the overall non-resident overnight visitor population. This report is a companion document to the main VES report. The results reported here detail travel to various communities and tourism regions within the province as well as the capture rate for the tourism regions. Capture rate identifies where visitors go within a particular region, using those who visited the region as a base. It should be noted that capture rate values are not adjusted for the size of the region; comparative analysis of capture rates within a particular region is fine, however, analysis between regions of different sizes is not recommended due to the variance in visitation rates across the geographic regions. - Page 1 - CONTACT For further information on this study, please contact: Tourism Research Research, Planning and Decision Support Tourism Nova Scotia 8 Water Street PO Box 667 Windsor, Nova Scotia B0N 2T0 Telephone: (902) 798-6700 Email: [email protected] Reproduction in whole or in part is not permitted without the express permission of Tourism Nova Scotia.
