Alaska has farmed salmon for over 30 years now. Why does the Marine Stewardship Council and the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch not tell you this?

  • canadians are retarded

  • @patemccormick07 I'll leave that comment up for sure. It will help us in our court case when we charge Alaska interests with illegal market tampering and protectionism.

  • Kudos to all of the posts by Alaskrab. The rest of you are ignorant with missinformation and don't know what you're talking about. Do your research. Alaskan salmon hatcheries are nothing like salmon farms.

  • @missjlkrauss It's 2010. All the record salmon returns are in the south coast of BC...right beside salmon farms. Things that make you go hmmmm?

    Alaska hatcheries are very much like salmon farms - human cultured fish intended for human consumption. But maybe your right - it's less risky to the environment if you contain them in cages (aka farming) rather than releasing them into the ocean to out-compete with real wild salmon (aka ranching).

  • Your shitting on my livlihood or is that different cause your an American and I'm just a Canadian ??

  • The Alaskan seafood industry reportedly dumps 1.5 million metric tonnes of untreated fish waste into the ocean every year. In contrast, fish waste from processing farmed salmon is used to make fish-based fertilizer.
