Résumé :
La Commission devrait envisager la fermeture la pêche commerciale au filet, ce qui profiterait immédiatement au saumon sauvage. Comme dans le cas des produits agricoles, tout le poisson destiné à la consommation humaine devrait venir de la pisciculture, et le poisson sauvage serait réservé à la pêche sportive.

Représentations :
Most of the submissions are anti-fish farm retoric with very little value as to solutions to the health of Fraser sockeye and other populations of pacific salmon. I would suggest that the commission consider shutting down commercial net fishing completely. This would be of immediate benefit to all wild salmon. There is no such thing as commercial hunting anymore, our meat is supplied by farms. Fish farms should supply all the fish we need for our markets and the wild fish left for the sport fishing industry, which by the way is of far greater value than commercial fishing.
