For anyone looking for a job in trades, or for a move. The NS government recently implemented a program to exempt the first $50k someone makes as a trades person from paying provincial tax. Tradespeople are needed here for a housing boom and this is a huge advantage compared to other provinces!

Something to look into anyway for those of you who qualify.

Employers say they’re having trouble finding enough skilled tradespeople. The Province will work to recruit and retain more apprentices, and review the training ratio for apprentices to create more opportunities for them and ease the skilled labour shortage. The government will also eliminate the provincial portion of personal income tax on the first $50,000 of annual income for construction trades workers under the age of 30.
