    • Proud To Be Bluenosers

    Calling a Nova Scotian a Bluenoser is not an insult. In fact it's a nickname of which they're proud.

    They've been called that since the 1700s.

    The name has three origins: the planting and exporting of Irish Bluenose Potatoes; the blue marks on the noses of fishermen left by blue mitts; and the nickname given the Nova Scotia British troops which occupied New York City and Boston during the American Revolution.
