Salmon is one of the world's healthiest foods, high in Omega 3 oils and easily recognized by it's beautiful pinkish/red colour. But how do salmon get to be this color?

The excellent salmon returns echo other Vancouver Island rivers such as the Nanaimo and Quatse rivers.

Look out Harlem Globetrotters! Each year, the staff at Marine Harvest take on the Kitasoo Kings basketball team in Klemtu, British Columbia, Canada.
