Not that I believe it will make a whole lot of difference, but they just created a new program in which the general public can become "informed" and provide comment:
We would like to inform you that DFO has launched a new online engagement platform, Let’s Talk Pacific Salmon, as part of our Pacific Salmon Strategy Initiative (PSSI).
The overall purpose of the platform is to supplement existing methods, opportunities and obligations for DFO to engage on Pacific salmon and the PSSI’s implementation, through the establishment of online engagement opportunities that will focus on various aspects of the PSSI and DFO Pacific salmon activities. Let's Talk Pacific Salmon supports both targeted and broad public engagement and provides an opportunity to contribute your valuable input and feedback.
While targeted engagement with First Nations and Indigenous organizations, key salmon partners, and stakeholders will continue through in-person and virtual bilateral meetings, as requested or required, the Let’s Talk Pacific Salmon platform will be used in some instances to further support targeted engagement. Broader public engagement associated with various pacific salmon activities may also be conducted using this platform, in addition to other avenues (e.g. through DFO’s participation in events such as the Salute to the Sockeye).
Along with the launch of the new platform, we have now also released the first public engagement campaign on the platform, the PSSI Strategic Framework. Through this engagement opportunity, we aim to provide the public with an overview of the strategic framework that is guiding the implementation of DFO’s Pacific Salmon Strategy Initiative (PSSI), focused primarily on information that has been previously shared with key contacts over the course of PSSI general engagement during the past year: what is driving the initiative; the vision, pillars, themes of work and guiding principles; the pathway to results; and the overall engagement approach. We are inviting the public to provide some initial feedback based on the overview provided.
The one-time registration is quick and easy, and your privacy is protected. Following this registration, you will be notified when new engagement campaigns have been posted for you to participate in.
If you are interested in participating in this or future Pacific salmon engagement opportunities, please register at one of the following links:
