Mmmmm Im leaving Alberta in a week. I have never been to Nova Scotia but "Jim" Im coming home! You might be able to make more money here but with the cost of everything else,you might as well stay where you are and not take the likely chance of being stabbed,mugged or shot.
It is not about making more but spending less
This albertan is giving it up for a ocean view..even if I have to live in a tent.
Yeah Jim, come back to corrupt Nova Scotia with it's organized criminal government, that's going to gouge you for every cent it-they can. If the chick 'really' loves you, she'd be out there with you in Alberta. Nova Scotia IS a cesspool of corruption. Within the next year with the way these CONservatives are sucking the life-blood, The Peoples monies out of'em.the cost of living gonna be on par with Alberta. EXCEPT JIM, You're making the big bucks $ in Alberta that your NOT gonna have in NS.
For some reason, whenever "Sweet Home Alabama" is played I always sing "Sweet Home Nova Scotia". I've never even been to Canada! I live in regular Scotia.
Toooo Funny:) I love it! Jim's people love him thats great and how could it be better than to live in a place like that. Ill take NS over Orlando or Miami any day!
I remember talking to some newfies who worked at various Sears in NS, all they could talk about was going back home. The only thing that sprang to mind was...it must be pretty bad in N.S. for them to want to go back there!
I want a $500,000 sh?thouse with neighbours as close as firecode will allow!! Yuck!! I have a sister that now lives in Fort McMurray and I don't know her anymore. She's a hollow, substance and greed loving snob, not unlike alot of other people that change when they go out there. I did something kind of 1/2 way and moved to NB where things are a bit better than NS in terms of work.
Hmm, living in a place where housing is cheaper but you aren't paid enough to afford, or where the housing is more expensive and you're enough to afford it. Oh what a decision :S
Ya know why there is nothing in Nova Scotia? Because people keep leaving. Stay and build an economy. The place is fertile ground for private enterprise. You can go and work for others someplace else or you can stay and build your own business.
There is nothing in N.S. because people keep electing people who cannot finance their way out of a paper bag. Sure you can start your own business but you'll realize very quickly that there is a certain way things work around here that would have most people up in arms with the lousy service received!
This sorta reminds me of how everyone leaves Maine for jobs elsewhere in the country. And you might find some good ones out there, but you'll never top Maine's quality of life and natural beauty, not in the US at least. I want to go to Nova Scotia sometime, the Maritimes seem absolutely wonderful.
It's a great place to visit but you wouldn't want to live here. I don't know about Maine, but around here you can turn on the TV and hear the same old stories on how everyone has to tighten their belts for the financial mismanagement of the previous government.
nova scotia is a great place and i agree with some people on here about our government and how fucked up we are, i'll be glad when the "OLD VOTE is wiped out and we will get changes, FUCK bill mills he's a FAG
Young knolman, you should definitely get out of that hole. but you will appreciate that little quite hole in time and laugh at this clip again in a different way
ok i love living in nova scotia all my friends and family r here but im 15 and i know that its a hole and but dont get me wrong it is a good place but as soon as high schoool is over im out of here
I love it. Very funny stuff. Come on, really don't take it too seriously you IT geeks need to get your pencils out of your arses. Nova Scotia is a great place and you cannot deny it.
Unless you compare your wages to your counterparts across the country. Then you can easily start denying it, especially when you find out how much farther your dollar goes in other parts of the country.
@Munderwood2004 One day you will lern that salary is not the most important thing in life. Sadly by then, you will have wasted many years that you cant get back.
Oh come on eh! This was suppossed to be funny right? Although the Govenment doesna't usually invest in humour, but I laughed. NOVA SCOTIA Send us your Youth and Talent and - we will put them to work.
... and please Nova Scotia keep sending to the world your great music
Top 10 reasons to visit Nova Scotia
Jimmy, Cookie, Raylene, Heather, Rita, Natalie, The Cotters, Lennie.
I remember ATV news doing a story on this and the people in Alberta didn't really seem to care about the whole thing.
As soon as I saw this ad, I thought to myself, yeah his friend is trying to lure him back to N.S. for a laid back lifestyle....and for what? Nepotism aside, someone who did move back here from such a commercial I would highly doubt, would have the time to spend all their hours out at the cottage/Hfx. Hbr.
I can't believe the govt would pay for something like this! Give the young people a chance, they'll come back if it's the real deal. How recent is this video? I've seen those YHZ departure gates so many times. Sign on the left says no liquids and you're always greeted by bilingual security ppl.
While the whole province isn't all backward, it's the general impression one can get...and if it weren't true, well, the rest of Canada would hear about it (and be happy to hear it).
I'd rather be poor in Nova Scotia than rich in Alberta.

I take it back, I _can_ believe the NS govt would pay for something like this.
And Jim's gf says he's working a tonne of hours...yeah he's not unionized and I bet he's working for OT pay.
IT in Nova Scotia springing up all over the place? Umm, jobs aren't all made equal.
*sigh* well, anyone in Calgary can take a vacation to Halifax to see how things really are. I doubt this ad would have much of an overall effect.
