Abstract

Nova Scotia’s provincial health department tracks and compiles a detailed and concise report outlining which illicit drugs are impacting communities across the province.

November’s report titled, “Nova Scotia Drug Report – Drugs & Substances,” provides concise information from “frontline reports” around which drugs have led to overdose deaths and what drugs are showing up in different health zones province-wide.

However, the report is deemed confidential and not available to the general public.
