Salmon Canada is a national food and jobs strategy to build industrial-scale, land-based salmon aquaculture across Canada — creating thousands of skilled jobs, strengthening food sovereignty, and rebuilding wild salmon abundance.
We can rebuild wild salmon abundance in British Columbia and across Canada. And we can do it while building a modern, world-class salmon production industry, on land, from coast to coast.
Industrial-scale, closed-containment recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) powered by clean Canadian energy. Predictable supply. Zero interaction with wild stocks. Export-ready from day one.
Remove open-net pen pressure from wild salmon migration corridors. Invest in priority watershed restoration, science-based monitoring, and transparent open data to rebuild abundance of all marine life for generations.
First Nations equity partnerships and community benefit agreements at the heart of every project. Year-round employment, skilled trades pathways, and ownership opportunities in coastal and rural communities.
Canada has the clean energy, engineering talent, cold water, and trusted food brand to compete with Norway, Scotland, and Chile — and win.
Land-based salmon production isn't nascent technology. It's fourth-generation infrastructure, proven at commercial scale, and ready for Canadian deployment.
BC, Ontario, and other provinces positioned for industrial-scale land-based salmon production.
Biologists, engineers, data scientists, trades, processing, and distribution across Canada.
Each 60,000 metric tonne facility creates 500–600 direct jobs plus significant indirect employment.
Salmon Canada is bringing together investors, Indigenous communities, governments, and industry leaders to create the infrastructure for Canada's next great food industry.
