The Government of Nova Scotia refers to the provincial government of the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. Its powers and structure are set out in the Constitution Act, 1867. In modern Canadian use, the term ""government"" refers broadly to the cabinet of the day, elected from the Nova Scotia House of Assembly and the non-political staff within each provincial department or agency – that is, the civil service. The Province of Nova Scotia is governed by a unicameral legislature, the Nova Scotia House of Assembly, which operates in the Westminster system of government. The political party that wins the largest number of seats in the legislature normally forms the government, and the party's leader becomes premier of the province, i.e., the head of the government.
