[LookOutSugarLake] Salmon in Cherryville?

[handr at telus.net]

Lee Hesketh informed us that "The Okanagan Indian band is releasing  
70000 chinook fry on Thursday morning at 10. The site will be just  
past the confluence of Schunter Creek and the Shuswap River on Sugar  
Lake Road. One more step in getting a ladder put in. "

Doesn't make much sense to me for DFO to let unsustainable  
development occur at Sugar Lake while supporting the expenditure of  
researching, then building a fish ladder at Wilsey Dam so the salmon  
can come up the Shuswap River. I will contact DFO again but don't  
hope for very much for we already know that all sorts of destructive  
activities occur in large salmon rivers, which of course, is largely  
the cause of salmon decline.
