Signed. What the hell are they thinking? Pickup the phone and let them know that this is not okay!

Today Rob Flemming, Environment Critic, said the NDP will look at banning open net fish farms along key salmon migration routes!( CBC Radio 7:30, 10:00). The BC Green Party has said "we will work...

A great blog by D.C. Reid:

"Alexandra Morton has come up with a very damning movie on wild salmon dying of fish farm diseases at: salmonconfidential.ca. It is going viral. Google: salmon...

The impact of salmon farming on wild salmon and trout is a hotly debated issue in all countries where salmon farms and wild salmon coexist. Studies have clearly shown that escaped farm salmon breed...

for example: "The farms bear the costs of escapes because it is their fish they are losing." ROTFLMFAO

Thanks for this. It should be clear to any independent observer that the externalizing of the social, environmental and economic costs identified above are the subsidies that salmon net-pen feedlots...

[QUOTE=poet1971;282300]Fair enough. I forgot the "no pics it didn't happen" rule. How do these babies look?

Seadna has given some great advice.

We'll hope it was just kids. Thanks for taking care of it, Dave.

Mair lays the blame for obfuscation and otherwise distorting fish facts squarely at the feet of the media. DFO and the feedlots get away with fish murder because many journalists let them. Good...

I hope the 'Namgis can make the closed system an overall success. I, and many others on both coasts, have been saying that most of the environmental issues that stem from open net-pen fish farming...

Definitely contact your local M.L.A. and bring up your concerns. Election time is a great time to take action, as Hourston and ziggy suggest. WE want wild salmon and our enormous B.C. wild salmon...

It's a bureaucratic muddle under provincial jurisdiction. The water is "owned" by a licence holder - Catalyst Paper. This article explains some of it:...
