New Brunswick split away from Nova Scotia and became its own colony in 1784 after an influx of Loyalist refugees from the American Revolution settled there.

Disadvantages for Nova Scotia to join confederation?

Saskatchewan didn't really have much choice so pros out weigh cons. It was either become a province or stay part of the Northwest territories.

There were those in Saskatchewan that did not want to be sold or transferred from HBC control to Canada and they did speak out, some openly rebelled. The military response from Canada made them an offer they could not refuse.

A big negative would be that Saskatchewan has put more into Confederation than they have gotten back. Canada believes Saskatchewan owes them everything, after all Canada created, owns, Saskatchewan. The down side of that has been many federal policies directed at the Prairie Provinces meant to transfer Western wealth east. This has been possible in part due to the lack of equal and effective representation in Confederation, another negative.

They could have stayed as part of the Northwest Territories but that would have meant even less representation and more exploitation.

How long can a dad not pay child support before action is taken?

It depends on the state laws and how the payments are made. If the payments are made directly to the custodial parent, that parent will need to file a petition with the court before action can be taken, which can take quite a few months. If the payments are handled by state DFS and it is a state that is aggressive (most have become so) action will be taken quickly. However, most state agencies try to make reasonable arrangements before filing contempt charges. Bear in mind, not paying court ordered support is a direct violation of a court order and can result in civil and criminal penalties including incarceration.

Do you Know if Nova Scotia has the subartic climate?

Yes, Nova Scotia has a subarctic climate. This type of climate is characterized by long, cold winters with temperatures averaging below 0C and short, cool summers with temperatures averaging around 16C. Nova Scotia's climate is also affected by the ocean, which moderates temperatures and increases precipitation. The following are some of the characteristics of a subarctic climate:

  • Long, cold winters with temperatures averaging below 0C
  • Short, cool summers with temperatures averaging around 16C
  • Moderated temperatures and increased precipitation due to the ocean
  • Milder temperatures in winter and cooler temperatures in summer than other subarctic climates

Nova Scotia's climate is milder than many other subarctic climates because of its proximity to the ocean and its moderating influence.
