This is your chance to be heard regarding the Minister of Agriculture's preposterous decision to allow a single load of bees into NS from Ontario, from the only known area in Canada that has an established presence of Small Hive Beetle. This decision has nothing to do with need as there are more than enough local colonies to meet the pollination effort required this year. This is all about the Corporation bringing them in not wanting the border door closed, even for a year, in case it establishes precedent.
The petition is simple and quick to sign.
