Our thanks to Dr. Stefanie Colombo of @dalagriculture and the team at Northeast Nutrition in Truro, part of @cookeseafood , for hosting Minister Smith and Deputy Hollett. It was great to learn about aquaculture nutrition research and the work to grow healthy, nutritious fish.

Learning from @AquaNutProf on the impacts of potentially losing farmed salmon from British Columbia. Interestingly, Canada has produced 9.9 million more tonnes of CO2 emissions in two years due to importing more farmed salmon to offset the loss of production in BC and we could see a significant price increase of salmon to over $30/kg by 2026. 😳 #cdnpoli #bcpoli #aac2024 #bcsalmonfarmers #foodsecurity #foodaffordability #carbonemissions
