The image garnered First Place in ASF’s 2015 Live Release Contest. 2015 ANNUAL REPORT Eric Bolduc FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMEN Salmon conservation gained excellent traction in 2015 in the form of a Special Report on Wild Atlantic Salmon that was commissioned by the federal government to reverse the decline in the salmon populations of eastern Canada. In the US, we moved very close to completing the Penobscot River Restoration Project that has been recognized internationally for its ability to restore fisheries, expand opportunities for outdoor recreation and support energy production in a large ecosystem. Conservation is not a short-term game and no one knows this better than the Atlantic Salmon Federation (ASF), an organization that has spanned 67 years in its fight for the survival of wild Atlantic salmon. ASF has helped form strategic partnerships with riverside communities, other conservation and environmental organizations, and government. These partnerships, coupled with education and public awareness, are fundamental to programs such as restoring the Penobscot River and creating a blueprint for restoration that will help hundreds of salmon rivers in eastern Canada. Our annual report celebrates many conservation activities that occurred in 2015. ASF worked strategically with NASCO governments and NGOs to help cap the catch at Greenland at 45 tonnes and impose stronger monitoring and control measures on the Greenland fishery. This harvest is still too large in light of the state of the resource, but it’s a big improvement over the estimated 96 tonne harvest in 2014. ASF’s work with the Canadian government to decrease harvests in its own salmon fisheries helped set an example for Greenland. In partnership with The Conservation Fund’s Freshwater Institute, we worked to further reduce the environmental footprint of closed- containment systems through the use of fish-free meal in grow-out trials. Our workshops, presentations to government and creation of public awareness are increasing understanding of and demand for the land-based solution. Our research program that tracks juvenile and adult salmon in the ocean is finding out what is causing significant mortality in the estuaries and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and is mapping the migration route of adult salmon all the way to Greenland. Two new Chairmen of the Boards of Directors of both Canada and the United States recently took up the salmon conservation torch. John Dillon of Greenwich, CT became Chairman of ASF (US) in November, and Alan Graham of Rexton, NB became Chairman of ASF (Canada) in early 2016. The transition has been smooth, thanks to the eminent qualifications, knowledge and experience of the new chairmen, ASF directors and staff, whose long-term planning and action on conservation initiatives are achieving results. The groundwork was set in 2015 for great achievement in 2016 and beyond. ASF is well positioned to be a leader in this exciting progress towards restoring wild Atlantic salmon and their ecosystems in the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. Change of Chairmanship for ASF (U.S.) Since 2012, Christopher Buckley has steered ASF (U.S.) successfully, with milestones including the completion of the Penobscot River Restoration Project and an expansion of ASF’s significant work in research on mortality at sea. He helped steer ASF’s position on the Greenland fishery and dam removal. Now John Dillon, on the board of ASF since 2010, and with a passionate interest in ASF’s research, is taking on the chairmanship of ASF (U.S.). A former Chairman and CEO of International Paper, he is also a dedicated angler who understands the importance of reducing harvests and restoring salmon runs. John Dillon, Incoming Chairman, ASF (US)/ Président, FSA (EU) MESSAGE DU PRÉSIDENT ET DES PRÉSIDENTS DES CONSEILS La conservation du saumon a fait des adeptes en 2015 grâce à la publication du Rapport spécial sur le saumon sauvage de l’Atlantique dans l’Est du Canada qui a été commandé par le gouvernement fédéral pour contrer le déclin des populations de saumons dans l’est du Canada. Aux États-Unis, nous avons presque terminé le Projet de restauration de la rivière Penobscot qui été reconnu à l’échelle internationale pour sa capacité à rétablir les pêches, à améliorer les possibilités récréatives de plein air et à soutenir la production d’énergie dans un vaste écosystème. La conservation n’est pas un exercice à court terme, et personne ne le sait mieux que la Fédération du saumon atlantique (FSA), organisme qui, depuis 67 ans, lutte pour assurer la survie du saumon atlantique sauvage. La FSA a contribué à la formation de partenariats stratégiques avec des communautés riveraines, d’autres organismes de conservation et organisations environnementales et le gouvernement. Ces partenariats, conjugués à des activités d’éducation et de sensibilisation du public, sont indispensables aux programmes comme le Projet de restauration de la rivière Penobscot et à l’élaboration d’un schéma directeur pour la restauration de centaines de rivières à saumon dans l’est du Canada. Notre rapport annuel célèbre les nombreuses activités de conservation qui ont été entreprises en 2015. La FSA a travaillé avec en étroite collaboration avec les gouvernements des nations membres de l’OCSAN et les ONG afin que le Groënland plafonne ses récoltes annuelles de saumon à 45 tonnes et que des mesures de surveillance et de contrôle plus rigoureuses soient imposées à la pêche qui y est exercée. La récolte est encore trop importante compte tenu de l’état de la ressource, mais cela représente une nette amélioration par rapport à la capture estimée de 90 tonnes en 2014. Le travail que la FSA a effectué avec le gouvernement canadien pour réduire les prises de saumons dans le cadre de nos propres pêches montre l’exemple au Groënland. La FSA a travaillé de concert avec le Conservation Fund Freshwater Institute afin de réduire davantage l’empreinte écologique des systèmes d’élevage en circuit fermé grâce à l’utilisation de nourriture pour saumon ne contenant pas de poisson dans des essais de grossissement. Nos ateliers, nos présentations au gouvernement et nos activités de sensibilisation du public approfondissent notre compréhension du système d’aquaculture en circuit fermé et de la demande à cet égard. Notre programme de recherche qui piste les saumoneaux et saumons adultes dans l’océan est en train de révéler les causes de leur importante mortalité dans les estuaires et le golfe du Saint-Laurent ainsi que de reconstituer la voie de migration des saumons adultes jusqu’au Groënland. Deux nouveaux présidents des conseils américain et canadien de la FSA ont récemment pris le flambeau de la conservation du saumon.

  • The It Begins Here Final Campaign Report
    FINAL REPORT 2018 here it begins TOTAL $125,000,000 Thank you for being part of this historic moment as we celebrate the success of It Begins Here, the largest fundraising effort in UNB’s history. Over 10,000 alumni, as well as students, faculty, staff and corporate and community partners joined the campaign as we met and then surpassed our $110 million goal. I am grateful for the magnitude of your support and I am truly proud of your dedication to supporting our University. UNB has a great story to tell – we are Canada’s first English-language university and one of the nation’s top comprehensive universities. Our outstanding faculty, award-winning entrepreneurship programs, national-calibre athletics teams and state-of-the-art facilities draw students from across Canada and around the globe. The It Begins Here campaign has helped build on these strengths. A large part of our success is due to the hard work of the campaign co-chairs and the campaign cabinet. Bob, David and our dedicated volunteers have taken the story of what faculty, staff and students are accomplishing at UNB and carried that message all across the country. Together, we have worked hard to ensure that students have the financial support they need to obtain a quality university education. UNB begins with our students and that’s why one half of the campaign’s goal has been dedicated to student support. With your assistance, we have impacted the lives of young people and enhanced their experiences, on campus and elsewhere. These students will carry with them a sense of gratitude as they graduate and make a difference in Atlantic Canada, the nation and the world.

  • Salmon Letter Cains
    NW Miramichi LSW Miramichi THE MIRAMICHI SALMON ASSOCIATION INC. Renous SW Miramichi Salmon Letter Cains Volume 16, Issue 1 Celebrating 58 years on the Miramichi July 2011 A Look at Miramichi Salmon Numbers for 2010 by Mark Hambrook In early May this year, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) released to the Miramichi Watershed Management Committee the 2010 salmon numbers for the Miramichi River. The numbers reflect what most people suspected – that the grilse numbers were quite high in 2010 and the large salmon numbers were down a little from the previous year, but not as bad as expected. The Miramichi River had 50,000 grilse and 17,000 large salmon returning in 2010, which represents about 80% of the overall conservation target. The Southwest Miramichi comprises about 2/3 of the watershed, while the Northwest Miramichi represents the remainder. When we look at the numbers for each branch, the Southwest Miramichi had 32,000 grilse and 13,000 large salmon, representing 92% of the conservation target after removals; the Northwest Miramichi had 18,000 grilse and 4,000 large salmon, representing 53% of the target after removals. The prediction for 2010 had the Northwest at only 25% of the target and the Southwest at 50%, so why the difference? The model that DFO uses to predict the number of salmon returning is based on a statistical relationship between the number of grilse returning in a year and the number of large salmon returning the following year. This ratio means roughly two grilse in a given year results in one large salmon the following year.
