"To be blunt, removing [salmon farms] would have what a downturn in recession would produce, which is higher levels of addiction, higher levels of poverty, higher levels of suicide rates. These are direct impacts that these Nations would suffer." There's a lot on the line for…

Fraser River Sockeye are making headlines with early strong returns. Some are claiming it’s due to salmon farms but the data supports a different story. #sockeyesalmon #salmon #bcsalmonfarmers #trending #greenscreen #cdnpoli #bcpoli

True enough. So, closing farms will only increase public debt, reduce GDP, hinder reconciliation, reduce sustainable salmon "fisheries", food supply & sovereignty. It's a crying shame, really. #activistsbegone #Timetobuild #cdnpoli #bcpoli @FNFFSBC @BCSalmonFarmers

Pinks were supposed to become extinct in early 2000's, as were sockeye, owing to farms, yet pinks are invading the Atlantic basin, sockeye reaching unprecedented biomass returns. All this shows is a poor understanding of ocean productivity dynamics. #notthefarmsfault
