While Grieg Seafoods claims it cannot develop land based operations in Canada, it has invested in Proximar, whose upland/contained operation in Japan now holds 1.6 million salmon.

The native species of Pictou County, including Brook Trout and Atlantic Salmon, offer numerous opportunities. We must prioritize their conservation and protection to ensure their continued viability.

Amazing to see Wimbledon not serving salmon after @WildFishCons highlighting that farmed salmon can never be sustainable.

Salmon farm mortalities in Iceland increase to 2mill, a 53% increase. Whether in BC, Norway or elsewhere, the unsustainability continues to become more clear.

Salmon farming: Another "innovative" semi closed net pen failure. "Many"=hundreds of thousands lost. "Mowi had to empty the entire cage"
Pumps stopped.

On banning open net-pen salmon farming 👉 *DFO Minister wants B.C. to b a model for global aquaculture* ?? .....meanwhile in the same Country, Nova Scotia is geared to expand the open net-pen industry 4-fold. and in N.B. coastal waters, net-pen capacity is at max. #wildsalmon

Salmon farming in BC: A model for the future begins to evolve. Meanwhile, Norwegian based salmon corporations look backwards, offering little more than FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt).

Farmed salmon prices high? Price fixing may be why, not because BC is closing open net pens growing non-native Atlantic salmon. Cermaq, Grieg and MOWI are named, again, in another lawsuit.

@chuckchiang3 Fed. Fisheries Minister Diane Lebouthillier says the country's "strict rules" on banning open-net salmon farming are necessary, since the goal is to make BC "a model" in global #Aquaculture. https://t.co/9JB4HAUP1H

@CdnPressNews @NoOpenFishFarms @twin_bays @SteveCraigNS @NSFisheries @TinaComeaunews @munargyle An ADA differs from the traditional aquaculture licensing processes because it proactively identifies potential sites.

This is done in collaboration with various government agencies and PRETEND community input. https://t.co/EOz3Tj9haW

@CdnPressNews @NoOpenFishFarms @twin_bays @SteveCraigNS @NSFisheries @TinaComeaunews @munargyle @munargyle Now that the call for proposals for the six pilot sites has come to a close, we want to outline what happens next and how residents can continue to stay involved in the process. #Aquaculture https://t.co/lgCzvYoZJi
