According to claims from the BCSFA, the phasing out of marine net-pens for salmon farming following a recent decision from the government will cost an estimated $9 billion. The trade-body has expressed its dismay with the current government, stating in a press release that the salmon farm closures is based on "political gimmicks" as opposed to sound policy.
 

"Despite clear scientific evidence, the decision to ban current marine net-pen salmon farming in British Columbia by 2029 is driven by political motivations rather than long-term, responsible planning. This policy ignores the real-world consequences for thousands of workers, First Nation communities, and the broader economy," stated the BCSFA, in a press release.
