this is what our smoking gun is. get this non native disease that our pacific salmon have no defence against, out of our waters.

Footage shows 'lice-infected wild salmon'
It is being claimed that wild salmon returning to a river on Lewis are infested with sea lice originating from local fish farms.

Salmon and Trout Conservation Scotland said wild fish were ending up "plastered with hundreds" of lice.

Local salmon producers said they took fish health and welfare "very seriously".

Minister is in town, curious as to how the meeting between the anti fish farm group and the minister went? I cant find anything online.
 
Patagonia’s fragile marine ecosystem reels from influx of escaped farmed salmon
A storm battered salmon cages in southern Chile, setting 690,000 of the fish loose into the open ocean. A major problem of farmed salmon escapes is their impact on native species and the ecosystems of Patagonia, which are particularly vulnerable, with many fragile endemic species. Much of the country’s salmon industry is located in this southern region.
 
Hey Bones...Clown...lol..
Here is the latest in case you missed it.
If we are talking about Clowns... careful who you point to!!!
But then again you have been recognize as the GREATEST fish farm debaters on this forum...so who am I to challenge this great title!
"I am in court next week to stop piscine reovirus from entering BC waters. I already won this case, but the Minister of Fisheries refuses to acknowledge the court's decision. The Namgis of Alert Bay have filed a lawsuit to stop the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Harvest from putting piscine reovirus-infected farm salmon into their territory. A reasonable request as this is the law. These cases will be heard together Monday - Friday September 10-14, 701 W. Georgia St., Vancouver.
This is a critical moment for the salmon farming industry, because they are so heavily infected they state they will be "severely" impacted if they can't grow piscine reovirus infected fish in their farms.
By the end of the month, the BC government talks with Broughton Nation governments will decide the fate of the salmon farm tenures in the archipelago.

Gota love those who stand up to the BIG MONEY fish farm advocates and employees like Bones.!!!
 
So, I asked a fairly serious question and a received two answers that have absolutely nothing to do with the question.

Fogged in I asked

You provided a blog link and something to do with the courts. Nothing to do with the question. If you do not understand or you do not have an answer why do you feel the need to provide an answer completely off topic?
 
As always, excellent article. I always find your articles filled with facts and links to back up your point.
