Our Story
Founded in April 2023 by Sean Meister, Global Bluenosers started as a simple podcast.A former expat for 10 years, Sean came Home to Nova Scotia in 2017 with a well-established belief that the community of Nova Scotians and Nova Scotians-at-heart he had met on his journeys held the key to his province's future international success.But first, they needed to know they belonged to the Nova Scotia family no matter where they lived!Since launching, Global Bluenosers has grown organically as a grassroots community for those proud Bluenosers around the world. From the podcast, Global Bluenosers has grown into a digital community with pop-up events around the world and thought leadership events back Home in Nova Scotia.Focusing on connecting, empowering and celebrating the Nova Scotian diaspora, Global Bluenosers is on a mission to create a Nova Scotia beyond our wildest dreams.Built on the core value of radical generosity, we are achieving our mission by committing to intentionally building the sense of borderless belonging for the diaspora and driving economic impact for the province through collective action.In October 2024, Global Bluenosers became an official not-for-profit organization and is quickly scaling up to help make the world more Nova Scotian every day thanks to this move.
The Global Bluenosers Podcast

This is a different perspective on our province, focusing on the stories of those who have left the shores of their province to explore the world.
