Summary:

It is critical that the commission state that those salmon fishermen have the priority when socio-economic considerations are mandated.

Submission:

For 20 years or more, Fraser River;

Commercial Salmon Fishermen have been used as guinea pigs in experiments used by DFO “Scientists” to test new proposals, WITH ABSOLUTLY NO CONCERN FOR ANY DETRIMENTAL IMPACTS,

-Socio-

-Economic

-costal

– Anything community affected.

The “Stakeholders” as determined by Dfo, ensured consensus!

Now it is CRITICAL, that the commission state that those salmon “fishermen” have THE priority when scio-Economic considerations are mandated!

Any “others” (stakeholders) can state their reasons for greater consideration through attachment to a livelihood dependent upon Catch of surplus sockeye stocks!

I sincerely hope my message has been stated clearly.



Thank you,





Bruce Probert
