Canada must anchor an ambitious Global Ocean Treaty before year’s end

"Hatcheries hold up a mirror to the stubborn belief that salmon can exist without intact habitat." Salmon hatcheries: are they band aids — or bastions for rivers at their 11th hour? @VMart bringing 🔥 writing and piercing clarity to a very complex issue. hakaimagazine.com/features/t…

Robyn believed in me back when I was a wide-eyed, panicky journo. She's the kind of editor that believes in you before you believe in yourself. And I'm only one of countless young writers she's shaped. Journalism needs more like her. @TheTyee thetyee.ca/Tyeenews/2021/12/…
