This company should be shut down for treating living creatures in such a horrendous manner, for willfully destroying OUR coast, and allowing the escape of fish that will compete with our own dwindling stocks. All done for profit and no thought to the devestation left for our children (or their children). Is it a wonder man calls greed a sin?

The Pure Salmon Campaign

The Pure Salmon Campaign The continuing story of the collapse of the Fraser River run of Sockeye salmon.

Canadian Department of Ministries Gail Shea holds a closed door meeting and denies any claim pointing to aquaculture as the culprit. At the same time she states that the cause is unknown.

Overall, however, sockeye fishery has collapsed, Pacific Salmon Commission report says, leaving commercial fishermen in the lurch

The part I loved was the one writer's comment that sockeye salmon are vegetarians ... hehehehehehehe !!! W A Y T O O F U N N Y !!!! The major environmental disaster in all this mess is DFO, and the way they manage the commercial fishing industry. Always has been ... and sadly ... probably always will be!!! Until the DFO bureaucrats have their salaries tired to the escapement results that they achieve, nothing will change!

"Farm-raised salmon" sounds nice and sustainable, but they've become harbingers of disease, contaminating the oceans with antibiotics and toxic chemicals.

Number one reason why we are losing our wild salmon stocks is because of the bumbling, inept, useless bunch at Fisheries and Oceans. They are too blame, period.
