News brief

Nova Scotia reports fewer families in temporary hotel housing

Nova Scotia reported on November 3 that 19 families remained in provincially funded hotel rooms, compared with 81 in August 2025, as it expanded supportive housing and its master lease program. The government counted 1,229 supportive housing units and said it aims to reach 1,586 by March 2028. These are government reported program figures rather than independent proof that the wider homelessness problem has been resolved, but they give service providers and housing partners concrete measures to assess.
