 The Canadian government just announced that open net fish farming on BC’s coast will be officially banned in the coming years.

Open net-pen fish farms facilities consist of a system of large cages or nets in BC’s coastal waters that contain hundreds of thousands of fish being farmed for consumption.
 

On Wednesday, June 19th, Diane Lebouthillier, Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard made the announcement, stating that this move is being made to aid the wild Pacific salmon population which is currently facing unprecedented threats and to move in a more sustainable direction.
