Wild First

Wild salmon are returning in strong numbers after the removal of ocean-polluting Atlantic salmon farms in the Broughton Archipelago 👏 "The farms are gone out of this area, the farms are gone out of the Discovery Islands," says Chief Ho’miskanis Don Svanvik, ʼNa̱mǥis First Nation. "It's showing us over and over again that when you remove the farms, the fish do better." This year’s strong wild salmon return is restoring hope for First Nations in the region. It's time to transition all ocean-polluting Atlantic salmon farms out of BC waters to protect wild Pacific salmon for future generations.
