B.C. environmental groups lose bid to stop Alaskan fisherys sustainable certification 
By Chuck Chiang US Source: cbc news 10/31/2024

A coalition of Canadian environmental groups has lost its latest bid to prevent Alaska's salmon fishery from being labelled as sustainable by an international certification body.
