## Resource

Prince Edward Island just became the latest province to legally allow drone pesticide spraying — a move that could slash chemical waste, protect soil, and boost safety by keeping pilots away from fields. While the tech is already common in countries like China and the U.S., P.E.I. rolled out its own rules ahead of federal changes, limiting drone weight and wind speed. No one’s licensed yet, but future operators will need training and certification. Health Canada’s temporary national permit for urgent cases hints at broader adoption soon — and officials are keen to ensure everyone understands the risks.
