Salmon Escape Fish Farm

[campking]

Just read that nearly 21000 Atlantic Salmon escaped from a fish farm near Port Hardy, this can not be good at all as the article mentioned that the risk of pathogen transfer is very high because we know these farmed salmon are carrying a lot of viruses and pathogens that aren't native to Pacific waters.

Get these garbage fish out of our waters.

Not surprised at all. It was only a matter of time. Reason I'm against fish farms on the Pacific coast.
Wouldn't have it if it was free.

These fish are far more harmful in the nets than out. Eliminate the farms because they are concentrated breeding grounds for lice and pathogens. Plausibility over a million have escaped over the years and yet the ones that don’t escape have caused the greatest damage.

I’m not a fish farmer but there is not one shred of evidence that fish farms are harmful. Produce one document! Seriously try to find one that’s isn’t native based Sierra club, rain coast . There isn’t any . Just extremists ramming there bullshit in everyone’s brains and you all eat it up.

These Atlantics won't know how to escape seals or Orcas so they won't be around very long before being gobbled up.

There will might be a few that make it to a river but even then, nothing will happen. It's not like they live forever.

Best not to have them in our waters in the first place.

Playing devils advocate here: Could that be because the only people researching fish farms are either the groups you mentioned or fish farm corporations themselves? Research requires money, and researchers try not to bite the hand that feeds...
