Farmed fish continues to take a beating in the news. Its obvious that we need to seriously rethink the state of our oceans and the creatures it supports. It’s a bit ironic that the Canadians are so interested in a salmon run that has a troubled history with its fisherman.
“Our message is crystal clear and simple,” said Don Staniford of the Pure Salmon Campaign, an international group dedicated to improving fish-farming practices. “We want to the government to get the open-net cages out of the water, on to land, into closed-containment systems and save wild salmon stocks.”
