Restoration of salmon grounds begins at the watershed. Old-growth forests provide the best conditions for salmon streams to thrive. Many streams need restoration to create the conditions needed for salmon fry to survive. A moratorium of old-growth logging in BC would help salmon stocks recover.

Of the 9000 populations of salmon on the BC coastline, many need help to thrive. Restoring natural spawning grounds and hatcheries of each individual river population in its natural waters fosters indigenous salmon populations and preserves the wild genetic stock .

British Columbia has several distinct Orca populations defined by where they live and what they eat. Those most at risk are the salmon-eating southern resident Orcas of the Salish Sea. Salmon is a keystone species and salmon stocks are in rapid decline. Without them, these Orcas will starve or move on.
