Sm,—I have the honour to submit the Fifteenth Annual Report of the Department of Fisheries, which covers the fiscal year 1944-45 and is the Seventy-eighth Annual Report on the Fisheries of the Dominion. For reasons of economy, the report, like those of other recent years, has been kept to smaller limits than the annual reports issued in some earlier periods. The condensa- tion consists in giving lessened space to matters of detail. The report takes up such matters as the results of commercial fishing operations in the Dominion during the calendar year 1944, exportation of products of the fisheries during the year, operations of international fisheries commissions of the Pacific coast, and so on. Appendices to the report take up several branches of the Dominion's work in some detail though here, too, detail has been kept to smaller limits than in some other years. These appendices are:— Reports of the Chief Supervisors of Fisheries. Report on the Fish Culture Work of the Department. Report on Oyster Culture and the Further Development of Oyster Farming. Report of the Fisheries Engineer. Reports as to the Operations of the Fish Inspection Laboratories. The Annual Financial Statement of the Department. COMMERCIAL FISHERIES IN 1944 Throughout 1944 there was continuation of the upward trend in fisheries production value that had been evident in earlier war years. In result, the total marketed value of the 1944 catch exceeded $89,600,000, much the largest dollar return in the history of the Dominion's fishing industry. The explanation of the continued process of increase is to be found, of course, in the continued great demand for fisheries products and in firmness of prevailing prices for such goods, not in greater production. As for production, however, it may well be emphasized here that the fishing industry deserves high credit for what it has done in maintaining wartime output at approximately the pre-war level in spite of a good many difficulties arising out of the times. The 1944 in-crease over the marketed value total for the preceding year was some $4,000,000. As compared with the dollar return in 1938, the last full year of peace, 1944 showed a gain of about 120 per cent and in comparison with the largest value total recorded in any peacetime period of the past-- slightly less than $56,400,000 in 1926—the 1944 figures shoveed an increa.se of nearly 60 per cent. Complete and detailed figures relative to Canada's fisheries production, size of working force in the fishing industry, number of vessels and boats and processing plants and other like data, are given in the annual publication known as Fisheries Statistics of Canada. That report is prepared by the Depart- ment. and the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, jointly, with the collaboration of 7 8 DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES provincial services in those parts of the country where fisheries administration is in the hands of the provinces—Quebec, Ontario, and the three Prairie Provinces. Since the statistical paper gives these detailed data the present paragraphs dealing with 1944 operatina results will only concern themselves, except in a few instances, with •production in the sea fisheries of British Columbia and the Maritime Provinces, which are under the Department's administration. That is, the same thing as saying that the comments here are concerned with fisheries ivhich ordinarily produce more than four-fifths of the country's annual landings of fish and shellfish. Most of the remaining one-fifth comes from the freshwater fisheries, >although it includes important quantities of fish and shellfish taken by Quebec sea fishermen. Working Force and Industrial Production in 1944—Combined landings from the sea fisheries of the Maritime Provinces and. British Columbia in the calendar. year 1944, something over 994,800,000 pounds, were smaller than the 1943 catch but they brought the fishermen; an increased return in dollars and the finished products were worth, as marketed, $73,100,000, a gain of more than $4,975,000. (In general, round figures only are being used in this review.) Solar as money. return to the fishermen was concerned—that is, the value of the catch as landed—the $39,360,000 total showed an in,crease of nearly $3,860,000. In making the catch nearly 38,600 fishermen were at work or over 1,300 More tha.n in 1943. Plant employees who prepared the catch for market, and thus shared in creating the marketed value return for the year, nmxtbered 15,450, an increase of something less than 1,200. Capital equipment in use, including vessels, boats, gear, plant and machinery, represented an investment of $56,- 800,000, which was $4,200,000 and more above the. 1943 figure. In number of fishermen,, n,umber of plant workers, and capital investment there was an increase in each of the four provinces. Catch, by Provinces--Shown by provinces, in round figures, the year's sea catch and landed value were as follows:— - Catch Taken Landed Value Clots. $ British Columbia 4,583,200 17,333,300 Nova Scotia 3,345,500 14,851,300 New Brunswick .1,747,300' 5,377,100' Prince Edward Island 272,200 1,797,300 New Brunswick commercial fishermen also caught 4,700 hundredweights of freshwater fish which had a landed value of $27,500. In Nova Scotia there was catch increase, as compared with 1943 landings, but in each of the other provinces decrease. As for landed value, there was gain in Nova Scotia and gain, too, both in New Brunswick and British Columbia, notwithstanding the falling off in landings in the latter provinces. There were catch and landed value decreases in Prince Edward Island. Marketed value increased in the first three provinces but not in Prince Edward Island. Bigger catches of cod and other groundfish and increase in herring landings had most to do with Nova Scotia's gain in production. In the main, New Bruns:wick's lowered catch figures were due to, smaller landings of herring and sardines. Reduction in hake and cod fares explain most of the drop in Prince Edward Island total. One noteworthy result of the year's fishing in the Maritimes was an increase in lobster catch, which will be referred to further in a later paragraph. Principal factors contributing to the decrease in Pacific Coast catch were the reductions in the quantities of pilchards and salmon that were taken. In volume, the pilchard decrease was much the greater, in what it represented in dollars the salmon decrease the more important, since salmon are much more valuable fish than pilchards. Even at that, however, some stiffening in prices REPORT OF THE DEPUTY MINISTER 9 brought the marketed value of the diminished salmon catch about $880,000 above the 1943 mark, or up to more than $15,620,000. Apropos of these catch reductions it may be pointed out that fluctuations in production from year to, year take place in all fisheries. They may result from various factors or from a combination of factors operating at the same time. Smaller catch from a fishery in some particular year may turn out to have been indicative of a lessening in abundance of stock but it is not necessarily an indication of that kind. Catch comparisons covering only a year or two of the operations in a fishery are not to be relied upon as a basis for conclusions as to changes in abundance in the fishing stock; much more study than that is required to reach sound conclusions. As for pilchards, sharp rise and fall in the curve of apparent availability in British 'Columbia waters is quite a common state of affairs. Study has not yet .been carried far enough to find the explanation of this condition. In the case of salmon, fluctuations in the size of the runs have been much less pronounced than the ups-and-downs in the pilchard fishery but they have been evident over the years, and evident, of course, not only in British Columbia areas but elsewhere as well—in the big Alaska fishery, for instance.

  • Kamloops TSA - Forest Health Strategy
    Kamloops TSA - Forest Health Strategy Thompson Rivers Forest District April 2017 Executive Summary The Kamloops TSA Forest Health Strategy has for the most part not been changed for this year. There have been minor edits, as well as some additions. It is expected that over the next few years, that there will be more information added with respect to; Stand Establishment Decision Aids, strategies for pests in young stands, stocking standards related to forest health factors and climate change adaptation strategies. The changes of note this year are: • New Root disease guidance Document Update on Bark Beetles in Kamloops TSA: • Areas affected by Western balsam bark beetle have dropped to less than half of 2016 levels resulting in 59,730 hectares infested. The decline is due to lower red attack rates, with stands in the northern portion of the TSA, around Dunn Peak, Trophy Mountain, and Wells gray Park and the upper North Thompson being the most affected. • Spruce beetle – attack levels remain high, with 9,770 hectares identified, the largest new infestation moving into uninfested stands in Wells Gray Park around Kostal Lake, McDougall Lake, and the west arm of Murtle Lake, Angus Horn Creek and the Upper Clearwater River. • Douglas fir beetle – the area affected by Douglas fir beetle more than doubled, to 3,100 hectares in 362 patches and 1,290 smaller spot infestations. The attack is widespread across the southern portion of the TSA with significant red attack in the Wells Gray Park, Barriere River, Adams Lake and Pinantan Lake areas. Douglas fir beetle is anticipated to build in fire damaged trees along the margins of the Elephant Hill, Thuya Lakes and Dunn Lake fires where there is variable burn severity and low intensity ground fires.

  • Fish Culture Development
    FISH CULTURE DEVELOPMENT A Report of the Fish Culture Development Branch of the Conservation and Development Service , 1950 Reprinted from the Twenty.-first Annual Report of the Department of Fisheries of Canada FISH CULTURE DEVELOPMENT ITH fisheries, as with other natural resources capable of self-perpetuation, W conservation is of prime concern. Since fish is a "free" resource, man may catch too many, and deplete the stocks to a point where fishing is no longer profit, able. Therefore, controls are necessary to permit the fisherman to take the maxi­ mum catches on a continuing year after year basis. In the broad analysis Canada follows two definite courses of conservation: 1. The enforcement of various types of catch restrictions to ensure sufficient natural seeding for a sustained maximum yield. 2. To apply where possible, cultural methods of all types both to improve environmental conditions for natural propagation and also to use artificial methods in cases where an aid is needed. The Department's work in this connection is carried out by the newly-formed Conservation and Development Service. One branch of the Service-the Protec­ tion Branch-directs the work of the Protection Officers on both coasts. Another branch of the Service-the Fish Culture Development Branch-is responsible for the construction of fishways to enable fish to by-pass darn:s and fqr the maintenance of hatcheries to re-stock waters in federally administered areas. These two services are closely integrated. The Protection Officers enforce the regulations pertaining to restricted areas, closed seasons, limitations in location and types of gear.

    1 SIMPCW “People of the North Thompson River” The Simpcw are a Culturally Proud Community Valuing Healthy, Holistic Lifestyles based upon Respect, Responsibility and Continuous Participation in Growth and Education Since time immemorial the Simpcw occupied the lands of the North Thompson River upstream from McLure to the headwaters of the Fraser River from McBride to Tete Jeune Cache, east to Jasper and south to the headwaters of the Athabasca River. The Simpcw are a division of the Secwepemc, or Shuswap. The Simpcw speak the Secwepemc dialect, a SalishanSalis language, shared among many of the First Nations in the FraserFr and Thompson River drainage. The Simpcw traveled throughoutthrou the spring, summer and fall, gathering food and materialsmate which sustained them through the winter. During the winterwin months they assembled at village sites, in the valleys close to rivers, occupying semi-underground houses. Archaeological studiesst have identifi ed winter home sites and underground foodfo cache sites at a variety of locations including Finn Creek, Vavenby,V Birch Island, Chu Chua, Barriere River, Louis Creek, Tete Jeune, Raush River, Jasper National Park and Robson Park. Simpcw peoplepe value their positive relationships with non-native people in thethe NorthNorth ThompsonThomp and Robson Valleys. They also recognize that their key strength lies in maintaining links to their traditional heritage and look forward to securing a place for their children in contemporary society that they can embrace with pride. The Simpcw culture is community driven for the management, conservation and protection of all the Creator’s resources. Box 220, Barriere, B.C.

Unless the proper safeguards are taken, large-scale capture and other factors, such as water-use projects, pollution, etc., reduce fish populations and result in lower annual returns to the industry. Certain species of fish, such as Pacific salmon, Atlantic lobster and Atlantic salmon, are more valuable than others. To ensure that annual yields will continue at maximum levels, the Department spends large sums of money each year to prevent the fishermen from taking too many fish and to implement measures leading to the production of larger stocks. In the year under review the Department spent more than $3,700,000 in this way through its Conservation and Development Service. Two-thirds of this amount was for protection services alone. The Department has found it necessary to maintain a large staff of protection officers who travel by land, air and sea in the performance of their duties.
