Province House is the legislative branch of the Government of Nova Scotia, consisting of democratically elected representatives known as Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) and the Lieutenant Governor. This historic building not only makes laws and controls public spending but also serves as a venue for the public to engage with legislative processes through free tours and various events.

Established in 1758, Province House is recognized as Canada's first legislature and features architectural elements of Georgian design. It houses significant artifacts, historical journals, and serves as a central hub for legislative activities, including debates, bill discussions, and committee meetings.
