Late lunch.
Baked #WildCoho #salmon with #CaulifowerRice with #quinoa added. Not shown, homemade garlic bread. The wild salmon is from our Indigenous friends in Komoks ❤️ The dill & cauliflower used were harvested from our backyard garden. The lemon used is from big Auntie's greenhouse.

#DiabeticFriendly & heart healthy meal for me & Mom.
I'm making my brother bacon wrapped chicken drumsticks in a bit. He requested it this week 😊

#FlashbackFriday
2020.

I was invited to go on a #flotilla #protest led by #IndigenousChiefs & leaders from the North Island in late 2019 - we went in March of 2020. To stop 2 open net fish farms, in the #DiscoveryIslands archipelago, from restocking their pens. These fish farms are remote & they don't want public to access them. No restocking was able to happen on day we went on flotilla protest & patrol.

I've been a part of the battle here to get #FishFarmsOut for over a decade. There's finally some progress but we need to still keep up the pressure on federal & provincial governments.
#SaveWildSalmon because they're a #KeystoneSpecies & if we lose them, it sets off chain reactions in both #ocean & #OldGrowthForest #ecosystems. Wild salmon are extremely important to the Indigenous peoples of BC & the fight to protect them goes back decades.

Always put #WildFirst ✊️

Please take some time watch my deceased friend, Twyla's #documentary. She worked extremely hard with Alexandra Morton to create this film doc. It's about the plight of #BCWildSalmon & why many of us activists here have been fighting to get all open net fish farms out of BC coastal waters. They should have never been allowed to set up operations in the first place.

@Jon_Kramer Thank you. I'd really like for more folks to #BoycottFarmedSalmon.

The open net salmon farms here have killed multiple marine mammals. It's killed land mammals & birds too because they do illegal toxic shallow pit dumps in pure wilderness. I've seen countless wildlife die at these dump sites via drones because they block access to all public. They don't want ppl to see their environmental crimes.
