Fish farmers calling for 6-year license renewals to supply more security

A group of aquaculture industry suppliers are appealing to the Prime Minister and cabinet to allow for a six-year salmon farm licence renewal in the salmon farming sector in B.C. and elsewhere.

In 2019, the federal Liberals made an election commitment that would move fish farms out of the water an onto land-based operations but that commitment “came with no consultation with our employees or the families they support,” the letter says. “Those within this food production sector are unable to plan for the future of their families, not knowing if their jobs will exist in the months and years ahead. This is an unjust and unfair situation for the hard-working people of this province. Additionally, the private sector is limited in its ability to invest further in the face of this continued uncertainty.”
