Article by Mark Hume in the Globe and Mail: Fisheries ignored 500 names. Can it ignore 5,000?

Excerpt: "Mr. [Michael] Price said juvenile sockeye can follow three routes as they migrate through Georgia Strait on the outward leg of their journey to the Gulf of Alaska.

"'But all these routes converge before the Broughton Archipelago [at the north end of Georgia Strait] where there are a dozen farms,' he said.

"'It's clear that no fish can make this journey without encountering a farm.'

"Mr. Price said studies have shown that one to three lice can kill a juvenile pink salmon, so it's fair to assume sockeye are dying as well.

"Could this help explain the collapse of Fraser River sockeye stocks?

"Some people will no doubt find this an alarming possibility."
