For a province that prides itself on its pristine shores and myriad coastal industries, British Columbia lacks important representation on the Ottawa committees responsible for fisheries, according to a local filmmaker.
Damien Gillis, who has produced documentaries about environmental issues in B.C., said the limited number of British Columbians on fisheries committees explains what he sees as a lack of action on threats to salmon and the closure of West Coast coast guard stations and lighthouses.
