His engineering experience ranges from local start-ups to government projects, leading to a practical, evidence-based perspective. Anthony earned his mechanical engineering degree from Dalhousie University.<br \/><br \/>Anthony lives with his wife, Jillian, at their home in Wellington, where they are always close to family. Anthony believes that strong communities are built by the people who live and work in them. As such, he has worked to support arts activities in public schools, as well as mental health and addictions resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;127&#8243;]<br \/><br \/>Passionate about politics since his youth, Anthony first volunteered on a campaign in 2006. Since then, Anthony has stood as a Green candidate three times, including the 2017 provincial election and the 2019 federal election. In 2017, he was fiercely proud to be the first Green candidate to ever win the Nova Scotia Student Vote.<br \/><br \/>In his free time, Anthony enjoys playing drums for charitable events, tinkering with energy efficient DIY projects, and gaming online with friends. In the summertime, you might spot him commuting \u2014 or even campaigning \u2014 on his electric motorcycle.<br \/><br \/>Anthony values participatory democracy above all, and he believes in the right of all Nova Scotians to have a truly representative government, which is why he is also contesting the Green Party of Nova Scotia\u2019s upcoming leadership race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;92&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To contact Anthony:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Email: <a href=\"mailto:anthony.edmonds@greenparty.ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anthony.edmonds@greenparty.ca<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phone: (902) 293-1568<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Website:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anthonyedmonds.ca\/?fbclid=IwAR23oc2_uWTTNkmYT5AEaa_qcOwPrHu31bjAI27olrSz8DXrkjGgS7DuOMM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/anthonyedmonds.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Social Media:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Twitter: @ALEdmonds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Facebook: @Edmonds2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;134&#8243;]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;133&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;131&#8243;] [adrotate banner=&#8221;95&#8243;] Twitter: @ReprtrPatHealey Info from: Anthony Edmonds and Facebook: @Edmonds2021 Anthony Edmonds is an aerospace engineer with a background in community service and political activism.
