I would have thought that the question would have been, why are individuals and families not staying in NS. The answer would have been blindingly obvious,,, there is no work and existing policies reference taxation by the provincial government does not entice people to with stay and or move there. So please answer how you would substantiate why immigrants would move there is the living there are leaving? Would the first question not be,, how does NS create a labour and work environment to attract other Canadians as well as immigrants to move there?
