Exactly what chemicals is she talking about Chirs? Btw you might want to picket Safeway again. Stopped in there on my way to Boston Bar three weeks ago. They were selling Atlantics right beside the Sockeye.
  Personally, I think your time would be better spent educating the public more about taking their litter home with them. Spent some time cleaning up a couple of camping spots while I was there. Perhaps more awareness at the beginning of the season rather than the end may help.

I can't take anything seriously that is so biased and petty as to immediately resort to finger-pointing and name calling. Thank you for the completely pointless post Dave!

Exactly what chemicals is she talking about Chirs? I am just wondering if they are the same as what is used in Alaska and Washington. You know, Mortons home land. :)

She needs all the publicity she can get.  She is kind of irrelevant these days.....with all the wild salmon getting bonked these days by commies, First Nations and sporties.

Thanks for posting the info , whether you  like the people involved or not,its good that someone is questioning the regulations in an industry that is almost to a point of self regulation.
 Actually the fish farms are also irrelevant ,cause i'd rather eat fresh wild sockeye!

Once again Ms Morton tries to make loose connections where her evidence is sketchy, made-up, baseless and more importantly omits facts that do not support her theories. Morton knows very little about Fraser Sockeye that it's amusing seeing these new theories of hers.  She doesn't even know where they spawn in a major interior lake.  When information is made readily available she still can't get it straight.  What is really funny is that she accuses government and industry of hiding and omitting information, but she is the biggest offender out there. There are still some lab results from this virus testing she still hasn't posted, but still makes conclusions about them in the public and media.  When Kristi Miller said something that didn't fit her theory she omitted it from her last film.  Apparently disclosure doesn't apply to "independent" biologists.  It's more important to keep the followers in-line so they will be encouraged to hit the GoFundMe button.

Want to support something worthwhile? Go support people like Chris or Dave in their volunteer efforts. Buy a Salmon Conservation Stamp where all the money now goes to the Pacific Salmon Foundation for salmon enhancement and habitat rehabilitation projects.  Join a local Fish and Game club and volunteer your time on fish habitat projects.  Want to be educated about Fraser Sockeye Salmon? Go out to the Adams River next month and take in the festival and listen to the experts doing interpretation (volunteering their time).
 
Chances are we will never see all of her results. Don't bother looking for the Department of Wild Salmon website to find those results - the site doesn't exist anymore. Where are her results from the water samples she took from Quesnel Lake? It's been over a month now and apparently not a word from her on this, but it didn't prevent her to speculate while she was visiting the area - acting like some saviour.  Meanwhile the province has continued routinely posting results (including raw data) for the public, including First Nations groups, to see.

As for fish farms being "irrelevant" I can see a person who dislikes fish farms would likely say that; however, when you look at the value of the industry in BC and the fact that aquaculture worldwide is growing each year it is hardly irrelevant.
