The Pacific Salmon Forum PSF - a non-biased scientific body ordered to look into the sea lice issue found that the studies Morton was citing (her own), were incorrect. Co-author Marty Krkosek agreed. Morton and Krkosek were asked to “recalibrate”. She concluded that “the survival of the pink salmon cohort was not statistically different from a reference region without salmon farms.” That’s right – no extinction. Not even a difference.
Caligidae what is so wrong with American environmental groups supporting the cause in B.C.?.......The Province of B.C's Liberal party is supported in this way by big business! funding the Liberal party. Thank goodness our Premier stepped down, now we have to get his Party out of power.

"They are de facto political organizations in B.C.," he says. "They're distorting the balance of power where a few people control these huge amounts of money that flow in from the U.S." And, he believes the growing impact of environmental groups is only hurting British Columbia's economic potential".
We have an update for you...and it's going to blow you away. Click on our name and see what's happened since you posted this video on salmon in British Columbia.
The only reason Alaska raises salmon in hatchery factory farms, is because your so called wild salmon fishery was Never Sustainable. Just be proud you still have a job because of the farming up in Alaska.
@Alaskrab Don't eat or buy Alaska wild salmon. Up to 41% of the salmon that Alaska exports has been raised in plastic trays, fed pellets, held in open net pens for up to 12 months, then released into the wild. Alaska farms up to 1.5 billion salmon each year to sustain their fake wild salmon fishery.
@Folkboat11 Quit playing on thed computer and get back to work fish farmer! Your comments might help change people's view on disease ridden farmed ATLANTIC salmon in BC, but people love WILD Alaskan salmon - whether it was in a hatchery for a few months and released into the wild with the rest of its Pacific family or not. You're wasting your time! Get back to work!
@Alaskrab Yes, populations of salmon naturally boom and also bust. Well done kid. It's called population dynamics. Populations don't increase for ever - they even out eventually (humans included, but I don't want to be a downer).

It's 2010.
British Columbia had record returns of pink salmon last year (2009)
This year (2010) BC has record returns of sockeye salmon (highest return in 100 years) and great returns of pink and King salmon too.
Extinction?? Yeah right.
Say hello to these "scientists" the next time your at McDonalds.

I'll say hi to them next time I'm at McDonalds for sure. And if its the summer of 2011, I'll ask them why the stocks are crashing again...
