Loyalists refered to Nova Sotia as Nova Scarcity as the winters were harsh, food was scarce, and the land was unproductive.

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.
In all, about 30 000 Loyalists settled in Nova Scotia (and in New Brunswick, which was part of Nova Scotia until 1784).

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.
King's College founded in Windsor, Nova Scotia in 1787!!! By the loyalists of America...I can't believe how many born canadians think it's Montreal and Ontario...Do you ever read the history of Canada? Ontario was founded and built on Nova Scotia gold....Windsor, Nova Scotia was actually considered to be the Capital of Canada....
No , Nova Scotia is not a country, Nova Scotia is a Province of Canada.
