  6. Tsahaukuse, George Quocksister Jr. is a #HereditaryChief of the #Laichkwiltach Nation and the son of Elizabeth and George Quocksister. He is a passionate advocate for the protection of #WildSalmon as a crucial part of his culture and the food security of his people, and is working to ban the practice of #SalmonFarming on the west coast. He lives in Campbell River, BC.

    This is from our 2020 #DiscoveryIslands flotilla protest & restocking patrol with George & 2 other BC Indigenous Chiefs(Darren Blaney & Bill Wilson) from North Island regions.

    The fight to get fish farms out of BC waters started in the late 80s & continues.

    2020.

    I was invited to go on a #flotilla #protest led by #IndigenousChiefs & leaders from the North Island in late 2019 - we went in March of 2020. To stop 2 open net fish farms, in the #DiscoveryIslands archipelago, from restocking their pens. These fish farms are remote & they don't want public to access them. No restocking was able to happen on day we went on flotilla protest & patrol.

    I've been a part of the battle here to get #FishFarmsOut for over a decade. There's finally some progress but we need to still keep up the pressure on federal & provincial governments.
    #SaveWildSalmon because they're a #KeystoneSpecies & if we lose them, it sets off chain reactions in both #ocean & #OldGrowthForest #ecosystems. Wild salmon are extremely important to the Indigenous peoples of BC & the fight to protect them goes back decades.

    Always put #WildFirst ✊️

  20. With Ross Reid, in Tofino. Most people know him as the guy who does all the popular Nerdy About Nature videos. Ross is a really awesome & knowledgeable guy/activist/educator. Great surprise seeing him in Tofino for a past wild salmon flotilla 😊

    Ross recently had his first experience in politics. He didn't do very well at the polls but I'm glad he tried. We need more people like Ross in public offices.

    The marks on my cheeks were made with salmon coloured red ochre. It was put on my face & all the faces of the Indigenous crew who took me out on their boat, by my Haida Nation friend. It's for strength & protection.
