Maybe he has a new employer funny how you see thing's depending on what side of the money you are on.

Greatest thing about science data is that two very intelligent well respected scientists could come to totally different conclusions depending on what they are paid to look for.
Science is a great money machine. Almost everything we do is based on it.

Wow, this one has degenerated into a straight up high school pissing match. I think I'm out now lol.

Just wondering, for the guys that refuse to ever eat a farmed salmon and never have yet. Do you eat strictly wild game? Pick your own wild vegetables? Avoid eating beef from the BC interior where salmon bearing rivers are pumped near dry in the summer to grow the hay to feed them in the winter on actual feedlots? Shoot your own grouse and never eat chickens that are grown on farms that may have, at some point in time had viruses present on them?

Just asking'.

I've eaten farmed Atlantic (generally at sushi restaurants that don't offer a sockeye option). It's not my favourite, but it's better than pink, steelhead, and some white springs. Definitely worse than sockeye, red spring, some white springs and most coho. It's no mushier than some wild fish are.

Man you get to the truth and the machine breaks down

I don't know Morton , but can't believe she is doing her research for the money.
 Maybe I should be donating to her cause, apparently our government uses our tax dollars to help the salmon farmers.
 Some of the fish farm shareholders are already very wealthy.
Just consider John Fredriksen, reportedly among the top 100 most wealthy men in the world and the largest shareholder in Marine Harvest.
 He has some pretty nice estates at various locations, shown by the link.

He is very successfull and has interests in oil tankers, drilling rigs, financial businesses, and reportedly one of his companies recently ordered a couple of natural gas tankers.
 Amazing the wealth he has worked hard for and accumulated in his lifetime., a very smart man. Just look at his sandbox.

I expect John Fredricksen has a very good overview of marine environments worldwide.
 Some of his companies may have been involved in questionable business practices and settlements arranged, but he has expressed that farmed salmon should not be on wild salmon migration routes

 Maybe  Fredricksen will spend the time and money to establish more profitable land based closed containment salmon farms.
