The province says the licence plate features the symbol of Nova Scotia’s Gaels, the salmon of knowledge, and the Gaelic name for the province, “Alba Nuadh.”
“This initiative supports the Gaelic language and culture in our communities and helps to foster strong and dynamic communities in Nova Scotia,” said Randy Delorey, Minister of Gaelic Affairs, in a statement.
