Farmed seafood production in Canada has flatlined. We’re calling on the Federal Government to lead the way in integrating aquaculture into a stronger, more sustainable agri-food sector for Canada. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture

It’s time for the Federal Government to champion aquaculture as an essential driver of innovation, sustainability, and competitiveness in Canada’s agriculture and agri-food future. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture

Farmed shellfish – such as mussels, oysters, clams and scallops – obtain all their required nutrients by drawing sea water through their gills and filtering out naturally occurring plankton. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture

Whether raising salmon or soy, clams or cattle, halibut or hogs – all Canadian farmers are responsible for the well-being of the animals or plants they are rearing. #AquacultureIsAgriculture bit.ly/3HwPxuy

Our animals are derived from controlled and optimized breeding lines, resulting in healthier, more robust fish and shellfish, generation after generation.

Modern farming allows for the control of inputs (like feed and breeding) and external factors (like pests and water quality) to ensure higher yields to feed the planet. And to leave wild fish in their natural environment. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture
