That is totally sickening and disgusting. Not eating breakfast this morning. Gross, who would want to buy and eat that?If you have a good stomach, please watch this till the end and tell me what you think. Do we really need these fish farms and their diseased fish intermingling with our wild salmon and herring?
Bigdoegh, so many things wrong with your statement. You wanted us to post on your thread, so here goes. Can you supply all the raw footage that was culled to make this video? I would like to try and edit together some footage that says the opposite. Can you also guarantee that this footage was all shot this year and none of it came from older footage or from perhaps some spliced in lab footage from a different era?Where is the precautionary principle? The government and DFO say they abide by it and use the principle to guide them when it comes to their invasive diseased farmed fish. Just more governmental BS that is supposed to comfort us in that this is all OK. Sorry, I don't get it. Maybe someone can tell me what I'm missing? How can having these lice factories with their diseased, virus laden fish along our migratory salmon routes be healthy for our wild pacific salmon?

The footage in the Video posted above about the diseased, virus laden and sick Farmed Atlantic Salmon in open net Caged Fish Farms is all real footage. Those really are Atlantic farmed salmon that are from the same cages as the fish being sold in the Supermarkets and that is ok if thats what you like but when these same farms are killing our Wild Salmon thats not OK.Bigdoegh, so many things wrong with your statement.

when i worked on a farm long time ago i was proud of the fish i sent to market, all coho or Chinook. we had a buyer for our 5 years old brood stock. couldnt get them into a 10" transvac tube, they would get jammed. 30-40lbers to hand process on the spot. they where wicked, started with 50,000 smolts and 5 years later 2000 prime adults. no runts or spawners ever went to market, all fish shipped on ice in a styro cooler to anywhere in north america overnight. we even pushed the blood veins back into the stomach so it looked as best as possible. on some occasions a float plane with coolers would show up for overnight Boston orders, the fish would compete with wilds in chief cook offs.Im neither for, or against fish farms but lets remember they have a buisness to run. Do you really think these runts are the ones making it to restauraunts or super markets? I don’t think so. No company is going to risk their reputation trying to salvage the very small percent of rejects in the batch.
Maybe not the runts but the ones with thier gills protruding as long as they are of size they are good to go.Im neither for, or against fish farms but lets remember they have a buisness to run.

They are making it to the restaurants and super markets in case CVmike was not aware of this.Here is the complete article in case anyone missed it.https://www.thestar.com/news/canada...ption_by_canadian_food_inspection_agency.htmlWhat does ISA in Nova Scotia have to do with this topic? Nothing, but carry on ....

So do believe that wild salmon have no pathogens when you purchase them at a fish market or catch them recreationally? Would you eat a wild salmon that had Salmonicola henneguya or had IHNv?Maybe not the runts but the ones with thier gills protruding as long as they are of size they are good to go.
Infected salmon declared fit for human consumption by Canadian Food Inspection Agency
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has approved a quarter million Nova Scotia salmon infected with the ISA virus for human consumption, but the U.S. won't take the fish.
What are you missing you say? Well, probably lots of footage for starters. You’re showing an edited film from some members of First Nations and some anti fish farm activists and you feel you are getting the full picture of everything that’s going on? And you are concerned about government BS but give this pseudoscience an big endorsement? Maybe you should expect some greater accountability and actual science from those that supposedly champion it instead watching YouTube.Where is the precautionary principle?

I wouldn't want to serve or eat those farmed fish without cooking them first. Especially not as sushi. (not that I'd eat a farmed fish anyways.) Scary that some farmed atlantic salmon is used for sushi when looking at the video of diseased fish from BC open net pen fish farms. But fill yer boots! According to the fish farm guys, that stuff is great!So do believe that wild salmon have no pathogens when you purchase them at a fish market or catch them recreationally?

Lol. Oh how I love the fear mongering. I’m sure you are sure about a lot of things. Ah yes we can’t forget the pristine Lower Fraser River downstream of Hope or the millions of hatchery fish produced for anglers such as yourself. All free of any exposure to chemicals. How much of Cohen did you actually read anyway?I wouldn't want to serve or eat those farmed fish without cooking them first. Especially not as sushi. (not that I'd eat a farmed fish anyways.)

I'd take my chances with a wild fish over a farmed fish any day though. Although I'm sure many are being infected from pathogen transfer from fish farms. And then becoming food for predators after having their immune systems compromised. In a wild salmon there would be less chance of pesticides from the use of slice, antibiotic residue, less chemicals. For example, chemicals that have been used in BC salmon farms include: Ivermectin, emamectin benzoate, oxytetracycline, florfenicol, Romet 30, sulfadimethoxine and ormetoprim, sulfadiazine and trimethoprim, tricaine methanesulfonate, formaldehyde, florfenicol and hydrogen peroxide. etc... Although with these farms operating in the direct migratory pathways of our wild pacific salmon and smolts, i'm sure some of these chemicals from the fish farms are getting into the natural environment and into our wild salmon as well...
