Salmon Farms

 

Aug 31, 2011

Hello

Testimony at the Cohen Inquiry Aquaculture Hearings hit a new low yesterday.  The lengths scientists are going to cover up the marine anemia outbreak that occurred on salmon farms in the Fraser sockeye migratory corridor is extraordinary.  If DFO succeeds in disassembling Dr. Miller's lab, the truth about this disease, its impact on sockeye and the concern voiced in the 1990s regarding its potential for health concerns will never be reveal.  If these vets want to tell us all the research done on marine anemia, also called Plasmacytoid Leukemia was wrong, they are going to have to retract the papers they wrote in journals such as Cancer Research, Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, The Canadian Veterinary Journal, the Journal of General Virology and Dr. Stephen's PhD Thesis.

The media is not reporting on this so please forward this email to your contacts.

Hello

Shortly after I sent my email last night, you began emailing the Premier asking her instruct the provincial lawyer to retract opposition to release of the provincial salmon farm disease records. After lunch the lawyer stood up and did just that! So now I can finally tell you why I think salmon farms are responsible for the 18-year Fraser sockeye decline, and the 2010 and 2011 returns.

This is not my research, it is what DFO, the Province of BC and other scientists have said. I have simply looked through the 500,000 documents supplied to Cohen this is what I learned.
