Association voices concerns about ‘Salmon Confidential’ film documentary
 Radio Canada International,  July 26, 2013

Following the posting of an interview by RCI’s Wojtek Gwiazda with documentary filmmaker Twyla Roscovich about her film “Salmon Confidential” on the RCI website Tuesday (July 23), the executive director of the BC Salmon Farmers Association wrote a letter to the management of Radio Canada International expressing concerns about the interview and the documentary.

The documentary focusses, in part, on the impact of salmon fish farms on the wild salmon of Canada’s Pacific coast province of British Columbia (BC).

The Association represents salmon fish farmers and the supply and service industry that supports salmon farming, including fish processing.

To find out what concerns the Association had, RCI’s Wojtek Gwiazda spoke to Mary Ellen Walling, the Executive Director of the BC Salmon Farmers Association.
