Farming in Canada – including aquaculture - provides jobs, supports local businesses and contributes to the economic well-being of rural communities. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture

Supporting Canada’s seafood farmers and prioritizing Canadian food products ensures Canadian kids have access to local, fresh food grown and caught right here in Canada. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture

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

Across all life stages, innovative rearing and containment systems protect our fish from predators and injury while maintaining optimal environmental conditions. #AquacultureIsAgriculture www.aquaculture.ca/aquacultureisagriculture

Really appreciate meeting with Minister Heath MacDonald. Looking forward to future discussions and to realizing the potential for seafood farming in Canada. Aquaculture is Agriculture!

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