In 1778, it is estimated that around 30,000 loyalists resided in Nova Scotia. This population included a mix of Loyalist refugees fleeing the American Revolution and local residents who remained loyal to the British Crown. The influx of Loyalists significantly influenced the demographic and cultural landscape of the region during and after the war.

Why did the loyalists migrate to Nova Scotia?

Immediately after the American Revolution, most Loyalists went to Nova Scotia, although some went to Quebec and a few others settled in parts of what is now Ontario. The drawback to moving to Quebec was primarily one of language. (Quebec was French-speaking, while English had been the language of the Loyalist colonials.) There was also little available prime land, and a relatively harsh climate. Nova Scotia had plenty of good land to offer, a better climate, and an established British form of government with which the Loyalists were already familiar. Ontario was, for the most part, still wilderness, although many Loyalists did settle on the Canadian side of the Niagara River.
