Economic development meets Indigenous reconciliation
With diversity in the west coast seafood sector, which includes salmon farms, it's an achievement of which Canadians should be proud. As economic development meets Indigenous reconciliation, it is through salmon farming the Indigenous people on the west coast are working to reconcile with Canada in a process which can be a tremendous source of unity for the country.
Economic development is the play, a foot in the door to the benefits of being Canadian. Obviously Indigenous leaders and business people are committed to the process considering the number of economic agreements Indigenous leaders and communities have made in the salmon farm industry in B.C., and Canada, in the past three decades.
