The provincial election on Nov.26 will impact environmental action in Nova Scotia for the next four years. You can use your voice to engage your candidates on the issues that you care about. The Ecology Action Centre has developed a voter toolkit to assist you with those conversations.
The topics in the toolkit include areas where the EAC has ongoing work, and where they have identified CLEAR PROVINCIAL ACTIONS THAT COULD BE DONE QUICKLY and that would have meaningful impacts on our communities - including;
The Coastal Protection Act
Protected Areas
Aquaculture and Open Net Pen Fish Farms
Visit the link below to get your toolkit and get up to speed on these topics (we've shared the section on Aquaculture below), we hope it encourages and informs you to speak to your candidates effectively about the environmental issues that matter to you, your community and the future of Nova Scotia.
"It is critical that our political leadership has the courage, clear plans and resolve to respond to the crises facing us in a way that prioritizes care for all our communities and the ecosystems that sustain us." - Ecology Action Centre
