GET FISH FARMS AWAY FROM OUR WILD SALMON
Minister LeBlanc:
Fish Farm Disease & Parasites Threaten Our Wild Stocks. Ensure safe passage for BC’s wild salmon by removing fish farms from their migration routes.
~ Watershed Watch Salmon Society
End Open-net Salmon Farming
Minister Dominic Leblanc, Fisheries Minister:
Fish farms pollute the ocean, and expose wild salmon to deadly viruses. We call on you to legislate the removal of salmon farms from the ocean, and support fish-farm-dependent communities to develop closed-containment farms and other sustainable jobs.
~ Pacific Coast Wild Salmon Society
Get Fish Farms Out Of BC!
Dear Premier Christy Clark:
As the landlord of the salmon farming industry, you must rescind the salmon farm Licences of Occupation in British Columbia. Wild salmon are much too important to put at risk for a dirty foreign industry that refuses to contain its waste and polluting the ocean with disease, putting wild salmon and herring at critical risk!
