Cermaq had sought permission to relocate close to 1.5 million Atlantic salmon from its Cecil Island fish farm to farms at Brent Island and Venture Point, where they would mature for 18 to 22 months prior to being harvested. The transfer application was turned down. Moving the fish would have gone against the intent of a Dec. 17, 2020, announcement from federal Fisheries Minister Bernadette Jordan ordering that all fish farms in the Discovery Islands, between Campbell River and the mainland, be closed by the end of June 2022. B.C. salmon farmers operating in the Discovery Islands have banded together to seek a judicial review of Jordan’s decision. That review is scheduled for Oct. 18 in Federal Court in Vancouver.
