A good colleague and former SPNO member will be managing this excellent initiative come November. This is an excellent example of a data sharing initiative, similar to efforts already under way in Newfoundland.

A community embodies a wide range of characteristics. Nova Scotia Community Counts presents socio-economic and other data that illustrate the unique nature of each community. With easily accessible information, Community Counts also allows comparisons of community resources among regional, provincial, and national levels to present a more complete picture of Nova Scotian communities.
