    I used to work with commercial diving on the coast, knew a lot of guys that worked these farms, pen maintenance, etc. and they are disgusting places.

    Heard that from all of them, they are dead areas with deformed fish. They over medicate these animals with antibiotics right in the feed perpetually. You wonder why you can't get rid of that 'rhea with an antibiotic cycle after that weekend in Port? Blame the salmon farms.

    It was the worst job for a diver. These things are scars on our coast.

    'A scientific sin': 16 Canadian salmon scientists claim DFO sea lice report was manipulated

    A group of over a dozen leading fish scientists are slamming a federal study that found “no statistically significant association” between infested salmon farms and sea lice in nearby wild salmon.

    The letter, signed by 16 scientists from the University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser University, and the University of Victoria, among others, said the Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Science Response Report, published last month, contained “serious scientific failings,” including cherry-picked data and a lack of consultation with leading experts outside DFO.

    The group of scientists also raised concerns over the external scientific review process, stating the report was written by employees of DFO Aquaculture Management and Aquaculture Science and was externally reviewed by one industry-associated professor and “clearly violated any reasonable standards of independent peer review.”

    A pattern of scientific manipulation?

    Mordecai said the manipulation of data and biased conclusions are the same strategies DFO has relied on when it comes to analyzing the impact of Piscine orthoreovirus (PRV), a debilitating virus widely seen in Atlantic salmon. It can transmit through open-water pens into wild Pacific salmon populations.

    “We've seen this in the past,” said Mordecai, pointing to previous DFO risk analyses in the Discovery Islands and elsewhere. “...these are the same strategies.”

    Seals don’t eat lice. Seals will eradicate all of the salmon species, it is only a matter of time, sad.

    How much money do we here in this province actually make from them?
    Cant see how the money we make exceeds the risk we could endure.
    We already have enough issues and no funding amidst the bs fed policies.
    Its just mind boggling who we continously get to run our country.
