Summary:
(The attached presentation was provided to the commission at the New Westminster public forum as part of the submission by Don Staniford.)

A wild salmon fishery would support a stronger coastal economy than do salmon farms, most of which are run by Norwegian corporations. The Commissioner should demand disease information from salmon farmers in order to address the causes of the 2009 sockeye collapse. Supermarkets should refuse to sell farmed salmon and salmon farms should adopt closed-containment facilities. Saving wild salmon is the responsibility of all British Columbians.
