LOL!!! Should be interesting to see if this thread is deleted again ... my guess is no, not this time
If anyone actually attends this event consider asking Eddie, or better yet Ms. Morton, what stock of wild salmon is being served and when and where it was harvested ...

I heard today at the Long Table you are going to ask these questions.

I 'm curious ... who here on FWR will be attending this event, and, who won't?
Nova, troutbreath, alwaysfishn, Chris, Norton (the most vocal anti salmon farmers I can think of, and at least 3 from the host town, Chilliwack), what about you? 
Who reading this is planning to hand over $55 to attend this Gala Event to save wild salmon by eating one?  Let me start off by saying I will not be there.
Anyone else care to commit one way or another?

[fishnjim]

Looks like the returns to the Copper river are up and down also.

Most likely the salmon on the menu has been eating that nasty feed lot food.

"So if you want to stay away from farm-spawned fish in your fancy Copper River "wild" salmon purchases, go for the more expensive kings. If you go for sockeye, you have a 1 in 4 chance of getting a hatchery fish."

Were you the one wearing that Salmon outfit? Or the guy shoveling cash from the back of a pickup.

[Fisherbob]

There ya go Dave. Not so quite, but still no answer to your question. Typical format of the anti-feedlot boys, since I have been there.
