Yes. The minister's announcement, frankly, was quite confusing, because it sounded as though there would be a two-month interim testing period and that he would test only for two strains of piscine reovirus, which suggests that we have a local endemic British Columbia strain. However, DFO has not published that strain. Nobody has seen it. I have not found it in my research.
I think this virus needs to be shut down immediately because, as he notes, the Norwegian and Icelandic strains are in our waters, and of course our wild salmon did not evolve with these. I hope he will prohibit the transfer of infected fish as per paragraph 56(b) of the law.
