Mowi considers 'legal options' over Canada's decision not to renew licenses in British Columbia

The 15 licenses that will not be renewed account for more than 24 percent of BC's farmed salmon production and belong to major companies including Mowi, Grieg and Cermaq.

'We are very disappointed that Minister Murray has decided not to issue any salmon aquaculture licenses in the Laich-kwil-tach territory,' said Diane Morrison, managing director at Mowi Canada West.
