It works out to 2.8 per 1,000 residents, where the typical Nova Scotia town has 1.1 and Canada’s 1.4. The CRA files each charity under its mailing address, so a service town collects its region’s charities and a suburb or rural municipality few.
37.0%
Volunteering here is a provincial number: 37.0% of people across Nova Scotia in 2023, likely 34.3% to 39.8%, set in a ten-province range of 25.2% to 40.3%.
