There are times I saw maybe 1-2 out of province plates in almost an entire day while it's impossible to make a 15 min drive to the local supermarket in Amherst or HRM without seeing several. But of course it's possible the number you're seeing genuinely seems like a lot to you.

I don't intend to hijack this thread any further, but I have to correct your erroneous impression.
I don't know where you hung out when you visited Moncton (Riverview maybe), but I can assure you that if you spent any time at CF Champlain Place, Wheeler Park or Costco, you would see oodles of out of province plates, especially from NS.
Now you can see what I mean about Haligonians belittling Moncton.
You should come back up from Halifax sometime for a visit. PM me and I'll take you on a tour of the city..........
Now back to our regularly scheduled programming. I have nothing more to say on the matter...........
