Building a Clean and Healthy Canada

Something remarkable is happening in our waters. For the first time in years, recreational fishers are participating in the harvest on the lower Fraser River — with the largest Fraser River sockeye salmon test numbers ever recorded in the upper Johnstone Strait. An estimated nine million sockeye have returned to the Fraser River, numbers we haven’t seen since the 90s.

This is an incredible turnaround, and a direct result of decisions our government made to protect wild salmon — from phasing out fish farms in the Discovery Islands, to expanding Marine Protected Areas, restoring the Fisheries Act protections, and investing $647 million through the Pacific Salmon Strategy.

Nature is responding. And we will keep doing the work to protect it.
