Here is what we have been waiting for! This is very significant. An alliance of 80 First Nations that are not going to let salmon farms destroy wild salmon salmon! Finally a powerful body putting wild salmon first. Let the Union of BC Indian Chiefs know that we stand with them: ubcic.bc.ca/contact/#axzz32dyixtFB We have witnessed the devastating impact fish farms have on wild salmon and this is simply unacceptable.” Chief Chamberlin continued, “The First Nations Wild Salmon Alliance, a coalition of approximately 80 First Nations have been turning their collective attention and expertise to the protection of wild salmon and we call on the Harper Government to immediately respond and fully implement Cohen’s recommendations. DFO does not have the best interests of the health and sustainability of wild salmon as a priority in their policies. This is clear as they continue to disregard Cohen’s recommendations and continue on with the promotion and expansion of the aquaculture industry.”
