Collection search - Salmon wars: salmon farms, wild fish and the future of communities

From the opening scenes of the film: "Salmon farms began in Norway, and soon spread to Scotland, Ireland, Chile, British Columbia and elsewhere. But the heaviest concentration in the world is around the New Brunswick islands in the mouth of the Bay of Fundy. Now the industry wants to expand across the Bay, to Nova Scotia. Their initial proposals affect five communities. Cooke has applied to establish or expand salmon farming in four communities in southwestern Nova Scotia: St. Mary's Bay, Shelburne, Jordan Bay and Port Mouton. The fifth application is for the Sheet Harbour area on the Eastern Shore. The applicant there is Snow Island Salmon, a joint venture between a New Brunswick operator and a Scottish company named Loch Duart. These plans are meeting with fierce resistance."
