Good News Posts - More than 1500 Posts for On-land, an Avalanche!


I reached a huge milestone on the On-land Fish Farm Movement around the world, with my first Good News Posts reaching 500 posts. It was started on Nov 27, 2018, so take a look: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2018/11/good-news-post-links-to-on-land-closed.html.

From that post, look at the Rabobank financial analyses articles, particularly, 233. And note that we are now talking about hundreds of thousands of metric tonnes of salmon raised on land, a huge number, with 1.8 million not far off. BC's output is only 85,000MT, most of which goes to the USA. It is going to be wiped out if it doesn't come on land. Atlantic Sapphire alone is looking at double the BC output, all aimed at the US market, with longer plans to be triple BC MTs. And the new Aquacon is aiming at 100,000MT, and there are more being built in Maine and California.


And, of course, in addition to THE 500 GOOD NEWS post, there is also my list of +384 on-land fish farm systems around the world. The two posts go hand in hand:  https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2016/05/152-different-on-land-fish-farm-systems.html. When there are hundreds of on-land farms in my list, and thousands of articles on the positive news about on-land, when is enough enough for DFO to put fish farms on land? Justin Trudeau let's get fish farms out of the water in BC, and catch up with the world.

Now that the second list of GOOD NEWS POSTS has reached 700 articles, which is an avalanche of good news, it is time to start a new post, starting at 701.
With the third post exceeding 1000 articles, which is a massive number, it is time to move into the thousands.

One thing first though: The Poll of BC Residents is item 825 in the second list:

Now the thousands of Good News Posts about On-land Fish Farms, which exceeded 1100 on July 2, 2021. Add the iem number to 1000:

Now 1500 has been exceeded and this new post moves on toward 2000 Good News Bites for On-land. This is a huge amount of information about putting fish farms on-land. There is no more excuse for putting fish farms in the ocean and polluting it.

Re your article on Jan 18 about fish farming:

Mowi complains that moving fish farms from the Discovery Islands is devastating news for 80 staff at the processing plant it says it will close. There are a few things that should be said:

1. Mowi could open-up some on-land fish farms and thus have product for the processing plant and it would not have to fire staff. My list of on-land has 383 farms around the world. Putting fish farms on land is common, though Mowi doesn’t think of it.

2. What is required is retraining for its staff, who then could move into other areas of fish farming and not be fired. If Mowi won’t do it, and prefers to fire its staff, the government should start a retraining program. Simple and straightforward.

3. Mowi and the other mega companies view staff as replaceable. For example, Norway puts out ten times the salmon that are produced in Canada. They use 20% of the staff employed in Canada and have laid off the rest because of introduced efficiency measures. The scientific paper on this one was written by Inga Milewski and it is easy to find. Once the measures are brought to Canada, 80% of staff will be fired. So, no one needs to be blamed other than Mowi. After all, once it introduces the efficiency measures here, they could lay off 80% of BC staff and still have enough to produce salmon on par with Europe.

Commercial Salmon Licences, a Weird History


If you want to see just how weird the history of commercial aalmon licences in BC has been, just read this article: https://www.hakaimagazine.com/features/fishery-closures-and-the-ghosts-of-past-mistakes/?mc_cid=933472e405&mc_eid=5777c92bcd.

It nicely brings together the historical complexities of DFO changes and the intended and unintended results since then.

And here is the most cogent quote from the article:

DFO wasn’t the only one offering cash for licenses. The Mifflin Plan didn’t regulate the total number of licenses anyone could hold, which created an opportunity for some of the largest processors to accumulate licenses, Silver says.
I
n Silver’s 2019 paper, she points out how the Jim Pattison Group now controls a massive chunk of the industry, because it owns 424 licenses—239 through its subsidiary the Canadian Fishing Company, 134 directly, and another 51 through a handful of companies. The next-largest owner is the Northern Native Fishing Corporation with 254 licenses. Around 1,360 people own just one license.

Today, there are 2,109 salmon licenses: 1,457 gill net, 376 troll, 276 seine. There are also a number of First Nations licenses permitting the use of mixed gear types, not including gill nets.

Davis says DFO is very aware of its past mistakes, but fishers aren’t convinced the PSSI will unfold without consequences.
***************
So there you have it. Lots of work went into this Haikai Magazine piece written by Michelle Gamage.

And just how much are these many licences worth?

Gamage says this: "An analysis of commercial fishing licenses, published on December 31, 2019, calculated each salmon seine license to be worth $530,000; a troll license, $167,000; and a gill net license, $56,000. If DFO hypothetically bought all salmon licenses at these prices, it would take up 45 percent of the PSSI budget—meaning there’s considerably less money going toward habitat restoration, Lawson says.

And, here are the First Nations impacts: "Earlier this year, the Nuu-chah-nulth won a court case in the BC Court of Appeal that confirmed First Nations rights to commercial fisheries. For the Ahousaht, Hesquiaht, Mowachaht/Muchalaht, Tla-o-qui-aht, and Ehattesaht First Nations on western Vancouver Island, their right to fish salmon is second only to conservation efforts, Sayers says."
And this is why the Sparrow Decision of the '90s has been so important to Indigenous peoples: "

"She also points to the 1990 Sparrow case when the Supreme Court of Canada ruled the rights of First Nations to fish are second only to conservation. The BC Court of Appeal declared that right for the five Nuu-chah-nulth nations, but other Nuu-chah-nulth nations have asserted they have the same rights, Sayers said."

Note, this story is parallel to the fish farm industry. It means that the wild salmon story has more problems than simply in-ocean fish farms. Both commercial licences and in-ocean fish farms have had very large negative effects on wild salmon.

Narwhal - Some Corrections to Sept 10 Article on Fish Farms in BC


DC Reid. I do extensive work on fish farms.

On-land is common. My list has more than 370 on-land fish farms around the globe, meaning the 75 listed in the Narwhal is vastly low. See:: https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2016/05/152-different-on-land-fish-farm-systems.html.

In-ocean fish farms have so many problems that I am up to over 6500 problems in the past five years. Grieg is one of the least stable of the large companies and has lots of problems around the world: Take a look at one post: https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2021/07/bad-news-bites-16th-post.html. It also links to the other 15 posts I have made to add up the problems.

In-ocean BC is going to be put out of business by on-land in the USA, as 85% of its product goes there but Americans now want environmentally sound, on-land fish farms. Atlantic Sapphire, just one company, is headed beyond 220,000MT to 260,000MT which is triple the output of BC in-water. The reality is that BC needs to come on-land or be put out of business.

And just so that you know, BC fish farms vastly over rate their employment and revenue. They say 7,000, but the BC Govt's own report says it is only 1800, or 25%,and has been declining for almost 20 years. See: https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2019/03/mar-21-2019-bc-stats-report-2016.html. We don't need this very small industry destroying our wild salmon and aquatic environment.

I have found almost 1200 articles on the benefits and good points of on-land fish farms. This means they are not just common but they comprise an avalanche of good news. See: https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.com/2021/05/good-news-post-now-more-than-thousand.html.

BC - Trudeau Getting Fish Farms Out of the Water


Trudeau wants Closed Containment by 2025. Little does he know that the same is true from green parties all over the world, that is how bad in-ocean is.

From my good news post on on-land, see:

222. Greens Want Closed Fish Farms - Norway, by 2025: https://www.fishfarmingexpert.com/article/norway-greens-want-salmon-farms-enclosed-by-2025/?utm_source=netflex&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter__09_09_2021.

And read it and cheer, while Mowi reads it and weeps. Too bad, you've destroyed the oceans all over the world for far too long. And the people who have to live with in-ocean fish farms finally want them out.

Here is the news article:

Norway’s Green Party (MDG) wants all fish farms to be required to use closed technology by 2025, it says in its manifesto for the country’s general election on Monday.

By Editors

The MDG also wants to restrict new licences to closed fish farms only, and to ban growth of existing farms before 2025 unless they have zero emissions, zero lice, zero escapes and low mortality.

The party’s other proposals include intensifying the supervision of aquaculture activities by all relevant authorities, strengthening independent research on how aquaculture affects ecosystems in fjords and sea areas, and introducing both a ground rent tax and an environmental tax on farming.

One seat

The MDG currently hold just one of the 169 seats in the Norwegian Parliament, which is elected by proportional representation, but small parties can wield influence beyond their size because of the need for parties to form alliances to govern.

The proposal to used closed technology by 2025 is similar to a policy being pursued by Canada’s minority Liberal administration in British Columbia. The Liberals, who are also fighting a general election, want to “transition” net pen salmon farming in BC into some form of unspecified closed containment by 2025.

In Scotland, the Greens – who have formed an alliance with the ruling Scottish National Party and have two ministers in government - also want to transition salmon farming into land-based facilities, although the SNP doesn’t support that policy. In an interview earlier this year,Scottish Greens co-leader Lorna Slater, who is now Minister for Green Skills, Circular Economy and Biodiversity, admitted that she didn’t know where Scotland’s salmon farms were located.

More text to follow. This surely is against what fish farms want in BC, which is to be left alone in the ocean, when 75% of BC residents want them out of our ocean. If they want to go on land, that is fine.
