The Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration (LSI) issues nomination certificates to prospective immigrants who meet a labour market need and who will make a contribution to Nova Scotia’s economy. Nominees then apply to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada for a permanent resident visa.

In most cases, nominees inform the Office of Immigration of their intended county of residence at the time of application. Many applicants may already be living in that location as a temporary resident when they apply to become a permanent resident. This dataset provides the number of nomination certificates issued annually broken down into intended county of settlement.

The maximum number of nomination certificates that LSI may issue annually through the Nova Scotia Nominee Program is determined by the federal government.

The Wildlife Compensation Program provides compensation to producers who experience damage to specified agricultural products caused by specific wildlife species. Compensation compliments crop insurance plans that list wildlife as an insurable peril as well as operates on its own for crop and/or livestock farmers who do not currently have crop insurance. In all cases the maximum compensation payment is limited to 80% of the value of the agricultural products listed by the Crop and Animal Insurance Commission.
