For once, some great environmental and economic news. BC is currently enjoying the fruits of a sockeye salmon run the likes of which have not been seen for a hundred years. Apparently there are currently so many salmon jumping in the Fraser River that they could be landing right in the fishermen’s boats. 25 million are expected to run up the river this season, the best numbers the Pacific Salmon commission has seen since 1913, and a blessing considering the dry run that fishermen had last year.
