Farmers Protest Today in Enfield, NS: Community Rallies for Food Sovereignty
Enfield, Nova Scotia – November 22, 2025
Today, farmers and supporters from across Nova Scotia gathered at the Irving Big Stop in Enfield for a local chapter of the National Farmers Protest Canada movement. Beginning at 8 a.m., the Enfield meetup is part of a coordinated effort across the country, bringing attention to the challenges facing Canadian farmers and the need for greater transparency, accountability, and support in the agricultural sector.
The protest focuses on several key issues:
• Food Sovereignty and Local Farming Rights – Advocates are calling for policies that protect local food systems and empower farmers to make decisions for the good of their communities.
• CFIA Practices – Concerns have been raised about recent enforcement actions by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, which many farmers feel threaten livelihoods without sufficient consultation.
• Public Awareness – Beyond policy, the protest seeks to educate the public on the realities and pressures of modern farming in Canada.
The Enfield location, a familiar community hub, serves as a staging point for participants who plan to drive in convoy to other locations in Nova Scotia. Organizers emphasize peaceful demonstration, safe convoy driving, and community engagement.
This protest marks another chapter in the growing movement of Canadian farmers standing up for their rights and drawing attention to the critical role of agriculture in sustaining communities and the national food supply.
Community Participation:
