We want to express our sincere gratitude to the NS Government and members of the opposition for their efforts in pausing the Commercial Wine Support Bottling Program. This is a good start and we look forward to working together and having constructive dialogue moving forward.

Premier Tim Houston said today in the legislature that his government are big fans of the industry & recognized that we grow incredible grapes in Nova Scotia. We thank the Premier for meeting with the farm wine industry & look forward to ongoing collaboration.

Today, I'm launching a petition to encourage the Houston Government to stop its proposed Commercial Wine Sector Policy that undermines local farmers and wine manufacturers. Let's encourage Premier Houston to put Nova Scotia First. 🍇 #cdnpoli #nspoli 🔗nsfirst.ca

Statement on Commercial Wine Program Support: nsfa-fane.ca/statement-on-c…

The Premier created a new program providing the same subsidy to bottling factories that produce wine with 0% NS grapes as NS farm wineries receive. This would provide millions of taxpayer’s $ to large companies w/ no roots here, making it harder for local wine to compete. #nspoli

'Nova Scotians shouldn't foot the bill for importers, bottling grape juice without any roots in our land. The province is allowing commercial wine bottlers to double-dip on the NS taxpayers' dime, undermining our local farm wine sector'
- Haley Brown, Executive Director, WGNS

Nova Scotia’s farm wine industry has become and continues to be a significant driver of the provincial economy. From its growth stems positive impacts across a multitude of other sectors including tourism, hospitality, and construction all throughout Nova Scotia.

Nova Scotia's wine industry not only positively impacts the rural communities in which the majority of our farm wineries sit, but it also greatly benefits the province's tourism industry every year!

Purchasing a bottle of 100% Nova Scotia wine is a purchase to feel good about! Every bottle contributes to such components as job creation in rural communities, construction projects, and the growth of tourism and hospitality sectors right here in NS.
