What are the advantages of wild caught salmon over farm-raised (if any)?

    Different sure but they both have environmental impacts, wild salmon is extinct in some places already

        Both? The salmon along shipping routes or around them seems to be most at risk but it is also the most accessible https://www.asf.ca/about-atlantic-salmon/state-of-populations The northern salmon populations are healthiest but they are also furthest from population centers. In general, there is still too much atlantic salmon fishing. Canada is still assessing long term strategies for salmon population protection. Edit: we do have quotas/limits on salmon fishing already

            It would be only Quebec/NL/LB. Very small amount of salmon compared to the rest of the market, not something you would find in walmart. Conservation groups have been calling for tighter restrictions for years and it might be they’re only giving out licenses to indigenous or recreational/sport atm. In Canada, we have special rules for indigenous that they can basically ignore certain/limits rules on hunting and fishing.
