About Debert
The town
Debert is an unincorporated community in central Colchester County, at Exit 13 on Highway 104, about 15 minutes west of Truro. It has no census count of its own; the Municipality of the County of Colchester, which governs it, had about 36,000 people in 2021. The municipality issues building and development permits and sets zoning for Debert and the rural land around it under its county-wide planning strategy and land use by-law. It also runs the Debert Water Utility and a public sewer system with a treatment plant in Debert; lots outside those service areas generally rely on a well and a septic field. Debert held a military camp during the Second World War, and the Debert Business Park now has its own airfield. The nearest full hospital is Colchester East Hants Health Centre in Truro, with a 24-hour emergency department.
Around it
The Debert Palaeo-Indian Site nearby, a national historic site since 1972, is made up of five camps where hunters followed caribou and made stone tools more than 10,000 years ago. The Mi'kmawey Debert Cultural Centre, run through the Confederacy of Mainland Mi'kmaq, works to protect these sites, and its elders' council laid out the Mi'kmawey Debert Interpretive Trail, a 4.4 km loop off Exit 13 open year-round for hiking and snowshoeing. Highway 104 meets Highway 102 at Truro, and Halifax Stanfield, the nearest airport with scheduled flights, is about 66 km south of Truro on Highway 102.
