The Wild Salmon workgroup, based out of Occupy Vancouver focuses on action protecting our Wild Pacific Salmon.?
OccupyWildSalmon's press release on Dec 17th stated:
"Salmon advocates across British Columbia are taking action to demand protection of wild salmon, coinciding with the re-start of Cohen Commission and hearings on the Infectious Salmon Anemia (ISA) virus.
Around the world, our oceans are threatened because of irresponsible practices of industry and government, solely for the motivation of profit for a few foreign owned companies,” states Tria Donaldson, Pacific Coast Campaigner, Wilderness Committee.
Now in BC, the discovery of the deadly ISA virus associated with industrial open-net fish farming is forcing us to examine our priorities as a nation. Are we going to choose corporate interests, or are we going to take immediate steps to protect pacific wild salmon and our oceans?”?
