It begins.... Tuesday I present regarding no farms and still lice. Using #data, #facts and peer reviewed #science to fight the #20yearlie.

Santiago Chile Airport on my way to the International #sealice conference to present at one for the second time. This time about #nofarms = still lice after #aquaculture removal in #BC #Canada. Slowly ending the #20yearlie with #data #facts #truth.

When #activists just don't know what they are talking about or outright #lie it doesn't help #wildsalmon. The 2025 Fraser River #sockeye return was dominated by summer run sockeye not late summer run sockeye. These fish 100% go by the Big Bar site. Why does she keep lying?

Remember this miracle 2024 recovery of chum report by AM? I do! Her blustering, cherry picking the species that works for her narrative. 2025 pick the Fraser River run ignore all others to keep the #20yearlie alive. 2025 chum were almost non-existent except for Nanaimo.

That right there folks is what all the fuss is about. The most common stage of #sealice we find on juvenile #wildsalmon. Do you see it? Also, yes those are my favorite style of tweezers. #truth #facts #science and #aquaculture Lastly, yes I am working on a Sunday Uggggg

Always remember all these chinook swam by Discovery Island #salmonfarms and the chum and pink did not because they had been removed. No farms = no change, it's been a #20yearlie by #grifters and #activists and #science, #data and #facts say so.

What anti #aquaculture #activist ignore... any #science that doesn't fit the #grift. Coho populations in decline and not from #fishfarms. @alex4salmon.bsky.social stop the #20yearlie www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Chum are the thorn in @alex4salmon.bsky.social and her #believers sides. All the below should have magically recovered following AM logic. Stop the #lies. THE #grift is up! So many people have been #duped by the #20yearlie

Just accepted an invitation to present at the International #sealice Conference in Chile. Topic: recent #peer reviewed articles showing no change to sea lice on #wildsalmon when #aquaculture or #fishfarms removed in BC. AKA the #20yearlie Hoping 16 #activists come and learn.

To be clear this is what panic looks like when the #20yearlie is coming to an end. Patience @alex4salmon.bsky.social ... it's coming..... #aquaculture #fishfarms #wildsalmon #sealice Not on my watch!

@alex4salmon.bsky.social comments are either uninformed or out right lies. Cal/Lep lice in the Broughton unchanged, ranging between 30-70% for the last decade, Tlowitsis farms included in Broughton paper (table & map below) Discovery paper was published here onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Peer reviewed paper finally out. No change to #sealice levels on baby salmon in the #Broughton with the removal of #aquaculture in the region. 9 years of data between 2016 and 2024. Results including 2025 shown below.... still.... no farms = still lice. www.int-res.com/articles/dao...

Wait? What? How was it possible for 2018 to be larger with #aquaculture #fishfarms in Discovery Islands? Can anyone tell me what the causitive agent would be for the fictional harm to sockeye? Recent peer reviewed science seems to rules out #sealice #PRV and #mouthrot
The joint Canada-US Pacific Salmon Commission predicts a #sockeye #salmon run on the Fraser of 9.6 million #fish, which would make it the biggest return since 2018. cheknews.ca/b-c-recreati...

What #activists and #grifters just dont get. The #magic 2025 #sockeye return in black at Mission station with all other years with #aquaculture in the Discovery Islands.

As peer reviewed #science continues to disprove claims of #sealice #prv and #mouthrot affecting #wildsalmon, #activists and #grifters are left with cherry picking short term data in and effort to cover up a #20yearlie they have committed. #gross t.co/dCDfuUsuAk

This is indeed true and a huge thank you as always goes out to all the FN Guardians that come along with us to observe, lend a hand and add to what is really a pretty fun job! #science, #data, #facts #aquaculture #wildsalmon
