For sure, but if they stuck to their word they would be a strong lobbyist.
But like most, they are all about their own agenda.... smoke and mirrors and such
Yup, sad and true.

Natives are the worst culprits of all in terms of these stocks...they're SO hypocritcal it's mind boggling. Conservation? They don't even know what that word is...look at what they did to the Knight Inlet moose population.
I saw Ernie Crey on the CHEK news video - one of the prime FN fish pirates.
I remember a number of years ago when a BCTV camera crew found his warehouse full of rotting Sockeye and trailer trucks full of fish headed for the US.
Just sickening!
Good thing we still have the halibut to go catch and take some heat off the chinook stocks.......
Les the DFO guy on the news had no idea what volume of fish Washington hatcheries have been cranking out. You would think they might want to figure out what is working? .
i believe a movement to boycott commercial caught fish is the only real step that would change the way sporty's are treated. until we start costing the dfo and commies money they won't care about us (proof is the past 5 years). the argument is simple and the dfo numbers are the backing. if a movement telling british columbians then the county that wild salmon and halibut stocks are in dire need of real conservation and purchasing fish from restaurants and grocery stores is supporting the decimation of wild salmon and halibut and killing orca's food supply more people will start to listen if and take more interest. another argument would be wild fish should not be exported from bc since farmed salmon is more than adequate to supply eastern markets.
Little disappointed about the news coverage. Very little of substance. Media does not seem to understand what we are demanding. Or they don't want to understand.
Knowing that the recent Halibut Seminar sold out at 300 in the same room, I would estimate that there were around 500 people during the peak time in the room. There had to be at least 150 - 200 people standing in the back of the 300 seated people.

The fact 4-1 returns are very high compared to 4-2 and 5-2 runs should tell them something about stream and river degradation on salmon returns.
DFO said fish farms have zero impact on salmon runs. No problems. Nothing to look at! :-(
