Nova Scotia approves glyphosate spraying on 3,577 acres of drought-stricken, fire-prone forest

Wentworth Provincial Park trails remain closed under Nova Scotia’s wildfire restrictions as of August 5, 2025. Photo credit: Joan Baxter, August 10, 2025. Herbicide use in these conditions could make fires far more dangerous.
