The aquaculture giant Cermaq Canada Ltd. is taking the Canadian government to court again, this time for alleged damages caused by the federal decision to remove open-net pen salmon farms from B.C.鈥檚 Discovery Islands.
Cermaq filed a civil suit in the Supreme Court of British Columbia in February 2025, naming the Attorney General of Canada, the Ministry of Fisheries and Oceans, the Canadian Coast Guard and former fisheries minister Joyce Murray. Cermaq claims it suffered millions of dollars in damage because of the government's flawed decision-making process, which includes what Cermaq claims is the alleged "misconduct" of Murray.
