Danny gave a brief talk on the DFO meeting that dealt with Salmon stocks or lack of, in the Bay of Fundy Rivers. |
|
|

DFO reps. apparently were not very interested in habitat or whether or not their were existing stocks in some of these rivers, but more interested in putting together a new plan to introduce a new genetic strain of fish to some of these systems without a proper assessment being done in these areas. |

Danny also said he sent a proposal to Adopt-A-Stream for money this year. |
|
|
|
Also sent for funding for students for this year. |
