Abstract

Scottish Gaels are one of Nova Scotia's largest ethnic groups, and Gaelic culture contributes tens of millions of dollars per year to the provincial economy. Yet, there has never been a systematic policy developed to provide support for the culture in Nova Scotia, and surprisingly little accurate information about the province's Gaelic heritage is widely known or available. This report represents a first attempt to address that need.
