Are you opposed to open-net fish farming and violations of a UNESCO biosphere reserve site?
Salmon farm corporation Mainstream Canada has applied for an enormous net-pen salmon farm. This farm would cover 1.25 hectares, and in terms of biomass—600,000 farmed salmon eating and excreting directly into the water— is equivalent to installing a town of about 40,000 people in the midst of a wilderness area. Plover Point is within the boundaries of the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and like the rest of Clayoquot Sound, it is a gem that needs our support.
