Tom Fletcher has proven himself to be an idiot, charlatan and purveyor of bovine scatology time and time again.

"You saw nothing in the city media because organizers can’t publicize the event, lest the protesters pull out their familiar placards and descend."
So anybody with a contrary view is not allowed to participate in a public policy forum because they don't march in lockstep with a predetermined agenda....Now that's democracy...

Sorry, not into following fish farm protests, especially when I have kids to tend to. Hope you had a nice visit at the Adams.
Family is always important of course but you knew we would be in Kamloops for some time now and surely you could have made arrangements to be away for an hour. Would have been nice to meet you and discuss things face to face, maybe next year. Say hi To Dale M. for me.

Ha ha, looks like native issues are going to be the downfall of fish farms with both the federal and provincial governments looking to make concessions to the native groups.

FN have always been the potential game changer in the Broughton ... time will tell the tale but I suspect if necessary the farms will relocate and secure partnerships with FN in nearby friendly territory.

What I would like to see is for the Provincial and Federal government put up funds to build the land based infrastructure for fish farms.  Lease it back to the companys for next to nothing.

We need farm salmon. There is not enough wild salmon to support the popularity of it.

Bob, Dave and SS, the beginning of the end, all the work by many is starting to pay off. No wonder SS did not want to meet when the Wild Salmon Caravan was in Kamloops. :-X

"Popham confirmed the government is investigating Marty’s research at the request of First Nations."

Hopefully they include Morton in the investigation! Next they will investigating Bombast Bob.

Burn...

"First Nations are also asking the government to fire provincial fish pathologist Dr. Gary Marty, who has refuted claims that fish farms pose a significant risk to wild salmon".

The results for this year have not been reported yet but apparently no tagged sockeye made it passed where there is a high density of fish farms. Lots died at the mouth of the Fraser where seal, bird and other predator fish populations are high.  The technology is super new, so it's possible the batteries died. So know conclusions should be made.

I just when i saw it thought hmmmmm.... who knows if there is any causation or correlation. Time will tell when the tech gets better
