Fisheries Minister Bernadette Jordan said these closures will reduce immediate pressure on fragile stocks that have drastically declined. We re seeing a decline in the stock runs, in some cases up to 90 per cent, she said in an interview. And, you know, we need to do everything we can to conserve the species. The government s announcement follows plans for the distribution of nearly $650 million earmarked for the Pacific Salmon Strategy Initiative. The plan will guide work on conservation, better hatchery production, an overhaul of fish harvesting methods and improve the collaboration of fisheries management. The closures are intended to increase the number of salmon reaching spawning areas, specifically sockeye, pink and chum stocks.
