Why this petition matters

Started by Protect Liverpool Bay Association
Please help us PROTECT LIVERPOOL BAY, Nova Scotia, Canada – Sign this petition!
The PROTECT LIVERPOOL BAY Association is a group of citizens & business owners concerned about the economic prosperity, social well-being and environmental sustainability of our coastal resources.
We, the undersigned, call on the Nova Scotia Government to immediately withdraw the current “Application for Expansion” by Cooke Aquaculture Inc. in Liverpool Bay. We know that marine-based fin-fish facilities cannot be sustainably operated in a marine environment and therefore demand a permanent moratorium on this kind of aquaculture and insist that all future finfish aquaculture sites be only closed containment, land-based facilities.
