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.

The only thing that Morton has said that is true!!!!!!!... "I dont have a great set of credentials."

This should be about American interest groups in Canada. It is a good thing " Vivian Krause' is in to research. Look for her interviews on Youtube. American foundations have payed over $90 million to promote so called wild Alaskan over farmed. Millions of that money went to so-called grassroots protests in western Canada. Why didn't these foundations put any money to enviromental action in the Gulf of Mexico, on the eastren seaboard or the Alaskan coast?

@vanisleLP Only a honorary degree. Also the Pacific Salmon Forum PSF - a non-biased scientific body ordered to look into the issue found that the studies she 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.

@vanisleLP "Closed Containment" Salmon Farming is only a Political Idea. "In 2007 the Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat (CSAS) engaged a multi-sector panel in an international review of closed containment technology. In a review of more than 40 closed containment systems from around the world, CSAS reported that none was successful in producing adult salmon at a commercial level." Realy nothing to be sour about is there:) Or maybe for you there is.

@vanisleLP If Alex Morton new her science, she would not have to use circus act mud throwing campaign's to get attention.

@vanisleLP Why dont you? Add a few other nations in on that. Then tell me what stinks so much.
