why the salmon and steelhead stocks are in decline. Probably the demise of other species of fish in our coastal waters as well.

It is in the best interests of fish farms to destroy wild salmon, I believe they want them gone and do not care about our wild salmon stocks... Its time to kick them out of Canada DFO the government needs to get this done, enough is enough....

Brown's Bay has broken no laws, their effluent pipe has been there for decades and the witch hunt that everyone is on needs to be directed to DFO. IF DFO had thought about or cared about BC wild salmon stocks this would have been changed decades ago. If you want to fire up the torches and grab the pitchforks, start heading to Ottawa and get to the kingpin, not some small company that is just doing what they are legally allowed to do.

The gov't' caves to the farms everytime, allowing so many destructive side affects of the farms to harm wild stocks. This is just one more. The farm industry claims they add 1.5 Billion to the BC economy and the Gov't gets a big chunk of revenue from them being there. $$$$ trumps wild salmon everytime with our Gov't. Disgusting!!
Their steaks, roasts and burger to me! Tom

Its not our companies that are at fault. Its our standards and laws that are the problem. The standards are always set low. That helps initiate business and growth. Industries play along and say things like "we are within compliance and practice at a higher standard than is required"... bla bla bla Sh1t even the best of low standards are still low standards...
shes just as ugly at 2am as she was at 10pm... In the end, just like our pride, the environment takes the hit...

The solution that has been immediately suggested, is to put additional terms on their occupancy permits. This misses the entire point.
This one incident is particularly egregious - but changing the permit conditions to address it, does nothing to address the very serious externalities of the industry as a whole.
The only solution? Get them out our inland water ways. Period. These farms can't continue to be permitted having any more direct, unmitigated contact with migrating salmon.
we paid for an atrociously expensive inquiry in the collapse of wild salmon. Its time we used the findings from that process.
