Salmon Are Sacred is calling on everyone who loves wild salmon to
participate in 'The Get Out Migration' which starts on Earth Day (22nd
April) and ends with a Mother's Day blessing (9th May). In British
Columbia, Alexandra Morton will start the migration in the Ahta River in
the heart of the Broughton Archipelago with... Quoashinis Lawson leaving
the Bedwell River in Clayoquot Sound UNESCO Biosphere Reserve before
joining up en route to Victoria. Other migrations are planned from Gold
River, the Cowichan Valley, the Gulf Islands, the Fraser River Valley,
Adams River and Washington State.
