The Nova Scotia rules that apply in Queens

In Nova Scotia, the provincial or territorial government licenses consumer credit, and the same licensing applies in Queens.

One part of the Nova Scotia framework that borrowers in Queens ask about is payday lending: A licensed payday regime operates here. the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) cap the total cost of borrowing at $14 per $100 advanced, and a province may set a lower figure, and the lower figure applies. Confirm the cap currently in force with the provincial regulator.

Federal rules describe a payday loan as an advance of no more than $1,500 for a term of no more than 62 days, which is the product the Queens cap above refers to.

In the lower band, Queens is grouped with towns of similar size, and the province still sets the licensing position for all of them.
