For farmers, a great deal of stress and anxiety comes at certain times of the year.
Some of the heaviest workloads are often packed into a few short weeks or even days, and adding to the challenge is something beyond their control. Farming is kind of unique in the sense that your job is very weather-dependent, so something that is completely out of your hands can have a huge impact on your income at the end of the day, said David Newcombe, president of Farm Safety Nova Scotia.

Today is the National Day of Mourning, which recognizes those who’ve died or been injured at work.
The town of Lunenburg will be live streaming a ceremony this year, in place of their usual in-person event.
Danny Cavanagh, President of the Nova Scotia Federation of Labour, said the government needs to do more to prevent workplace death.
“Our labour standards in Nova Scotia are completely outdated,” he said in an interview. “They haven’t been modernized; they haven’t been updated in their entirety for 40 plus years now.”
Cavanagh noted that in a rapidly changing world, labour standards should be reviewed every five years as new technology is introduced.
