There's a lot of science on pink and chum salmon that's available from both sides, if you want to consider this a debate. There are lots of gaps in knowledge when it comes to other species of salmon, especially sockeye. We don't know what happened to those sockeye or what percentage of a role fish farming may have played in the 2009 collapse. What I'd like to see is that the data from the farms, on a farm-by-farm basis, is available in a very speedy manner so that researchers like Mr. Connors can have that data to do the research they want and to ask the questions they want to ask.
