A chance run-in for @chicken_nova Chair @AmyVanderheide with @KodyBloisNS and PM @MarkJCarney! Good opportunity to chat about supporting farmers and supply management on the hustings. #IHeartChickenFarmers #Elxn45 #cdnpoli

As a mature student who’s committed the past 2.5 years, while working full time, raising a family, and contributing to my community, all while working towards my diploma and planning to graduate in June, I can’t express how much a strike would devastate me.

[The Chronicle Herald @chronicleherald]

Over 1,000 Nova Scotia Community College instructors and staff across the province could go on strike as early as next Monday. https://t.co/SOYG1PEuN8

[Amy VanderHeide @AmyVanderheide]

If this is it, if our year is over, there will be people who simply cannot jump back into this schedule, this time commitment. I stand with our instructors, and I’m hoping beyond hope that NSCC does the right thing for its staff and its students.

A big thanks to @dalagriculture for inviting Chicken Farmers of Nova Scotia for their poultry themed Aggies in the Community Dinner last evening. The menu, prepared by chef Peter Welton, was “Poultry Perfect”👌

OPINION: Liberals’ disdain for agriculture showcased in senators’ “let them eat cake” actions on C-234

Despite existing exemptions from carbon fees, Manitoba farmers say high energy bills keep them from making efficiency upgrades. Enter federal bill C-234, which environmental experts call another hole in Canada’s flagship climate policy. via @jsrutgers

@CornwallisFarms @farmsafetyns @NSFA Well deserved recognition for David’s hard work and committee to Farm Safety 👏

[Senator Rob Black, P. Ag. (Hon) @SenatorRobBlack]

I rose in the @SenateCA Chamber tonight to speak to the amendment on Bill C-234. Our farmers, ranchers and growers matter! #CdnAg #CdnPoli https://t.co/WgSrx3qCkk

Lola and I are spending the evening as trail monitors for the @townofkentville and @landmarkeast Annual Pumpkin Walk! It’s a beautiful evening to take a walk outside and support a great cause!

We are so proud to lead #CFAFPT23 Roundtable in #NewBrunswick. We are grateful to all the FPT AG Ministers for engaging & critical discussions pertaining to Sustainable AG & how we can nationally work together to achieve success for CDN farmers/ranchers & Canada. #cdnag #cdnpoli

Great afternoon @CFAFCA Thanks for inviting @TheInsideCoop to be a part of this afternoons panel presentation, and networking with #CdnAg Ministers. Always a pleasure to be a part of these discussions.

[Lauren Kennedy @ellekay47]

Proud of CFC young farmer and Nova Scotia #chicken farmer @AmyVanderheide for her passionate speech to Canada’s #ag Ministers. Sustainability in the Canadian chicken sector starts with young farmers and supply management. #IHeartChickenFarmers

Second stop in #NS today was Bayview Poultry Farms! I learned about the hard work of Nova Scotia’s egg producers and their contributions to #CdnAg. Thank you to the Jennings family for hosting me! #AgMatters #NSag @GetCracking @eggsoeufs @EggFarmersofNS

Encouraging market ready chickens to get up, release some trapped heat and get in some water. Record breaking heat for June 1st in the Maritimes.

[Amy VanderHeide @AmyVanderheide]

The situation in NS is scary. I hope these rules are respected and enforced, our resources are stretched and it’s far too early in the season to see this many fires across our small province.
