Here is a  photo from Almo where she actually shows a random non-selected sample.  Hmmm, no lice.  Another morton slip up.

More Pam for Dave and Fisherbob, what remarks will they make this time. https://youtu.be/OK8iQWwm-QM

Brilliant.

Unbelievable how Morton can continue calling herself a biologist when she posts stuff like this:

https://www.voyageforsalmon.ca/dzawadaenuxw-board-salmon-farms-territory/

Such a dramatic and highly exaggerated blog post about decaying fish in a tote. What do you think happens to dead salmon on a riverbank? Maggots not very appetizing? Of course not, but how do you think they get there? Ever heard of flies, Alex? Doesn't smell good? It's not supposed to because....they are dead, decaying fish. Instead let's play the disease card and speculate based on apparent hemorrhaging under the skin. When fish decay they can have a multitude of pathogens in them. Doesn't mean that is how they died. Cell structure also breaks down. That is how decomposition works. If it's warm outside those processes excellerate. Maybe some of the elementary school kids that tour the spawning grounds can be explain this to Ms Morton, "salmon biologist".

Oh, I'm really in awe how Ms Morton can identify wild salmon from a head and vertebrae. If she has her crystal ball or taro cards with her she can probably determine species, sex and stock also. Such responsible and objective biological work. Operation Summer Boondoggle continues.........

Tell us how you really feel Steve, lol!!

Hello

The Musgamagw Dzawada’enuxw First Nations are a group of 4 Tribes.  One third of the BC salmon farming exists in their territory (Broughton Archipelago) despite   nearly 30 years of opposition.  The salmon farming industry does not have permission to operate in Musgamagw Dzawada'enuxw territory.

Last spring up to 40% of the young salmon leaving their territory were killed by sea lice from Cermaq and Marine Harvest salmon farms. Today they are evicting the Norwegian/Japanese salmon farming industry from their territory.

This video below is going viral on facebook, 37,000 views in less than 24 hours

First Nation evict Norwegian salmon farms

If you don't have facebook, you can view the Youtube version of the film at https://youtu.be/9WgWotb97Lk

Sure would be nice to see some real honest Doc Morton science out of all this for a change.

Have been glad to be part of this for the last few years there will not be much more SS, Dave and FB and a couple of other poster will be saying now one would think.

Good move by Morton to get First Nations to fight her battles so she can keep her hands cleaner but sad that they are being manipulated and used like this. Morton has them so convinced that disease is running rampant on fish farms with nothing more than her misinformed opinion. You would think that if disease was so prevalent as indicated in the video that there would be thousands and thousands of morts. Instead, Morton has this particular First Nation convinced that the dead Atlantic Salmon (not wild Pacific Salmon as alleged) in these totes represent the actual population on the farm. No big achievement on her part. No science.  Just need a camera, access to social media, and maybe some high profile help from Hollywood actors/actresses and activists.  Just goes to show how some use the power of social media to strike fear and misinform. I also feel bad for those fish farm employees who are put in a difficult situation where need to secure the farm, but tread a fine so that the situation doesn't get more inflamed.
