As wild salmon populations decline, industrial fish farming in British Columbia continues to push these iconic species to the edge of extinction. With a federal promise to remove open-net pens by 2025 under increasing pressure, Salmon Secrets follows Clayoquot Action’s underwater surveillance team as they investigate a so-called "experimental" farm. Featuring voices from Indigenous leaders and marine scientists, this exposé reveals the hidden consequences of industry-driven solutions and the hopeful resurgence of wild salmon in areas where farms have already been removed.
