The Salmon ConnectionThe Development of Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture in Canda Atlantic Salmon is the basis both for Canada's highest profile recreational fishery and its largest aquaculture industry. It has more than a hundred years of conservation behind it, which provided the scientific foundation for the aquaculture industry's early success. What no one saw coming, were problems associated with interactions between wild and aquaculture salmon. This book explains why the industry was so slow to follow the lead from Norway, where the industry first began. It follows the industry from its beginning in New Brunswick, showing the risk taking that was involved, and how one man, with a few government partners, defied conventional wisdom to demonstrate that it was in fact a viable industry for this country. There is reason to be optimistic for the future of Atlantic salmon aquaculture in Canada.
