Protect Pacific Herring
November 17, 2025 is the deadline to have input into the draft Integrated Fisheries Management Plan (IFMP) issued by Fisheries & Oceans Canada (DFO).
We support the W̱SÁNEĆ Hereditary Chiefs and all others who are standing up to protect this keystone species in the Salish Sea ecosystem. We will be in Vancouver on November 17th with Chief Eric Pelkey, David Suzuki and representatives of many non-profits and conservancy organizations in this region to deliver our message: Save the Herring.
