To Whom It May Concern,

???? I have been born and raised on Canada's West Coast and have watched as fish farming has taken over our inlets and waterways.? Do people realize that Atlantic Salmon on the West Coast aren't like our West Coast wild salmon...the Atlantic Salmon are like large trout, they live to be about 7 to 8 years old, and can over-winter in our freshwater lakes and streams, then move out again.? While in these rivers, they consume salmon smolts, trout and many other living fish life that we depend upon as well as many other species.? The rivers we have been going into lately here have Atlantic Salmon living in them, and they have been there all winter.? It only takes two of these fish to spawn and reproduce, and the threat to our wild fish is enormous.? It is stopping the cirle of life on the West Coast.? The bears, eagles, trout and many other species as well as humans depend upon the migration every two to four years of our wild salmon, and their death cycle to feed them.? If these Atlantic salmon continue on like this, we may have nothing but these fish in our fresh waters here.? According to fishermen on the East coast, we have more Atlantic salmon in the wild on the West Coast than there are on the East Coast.? Is there a plan here?? Is it to control the food supplies and restrict them from the natural world?? That is what happened to the buffalo.? We shall see.? For All Our Relations, MitlaNova
