In the early 1990s, millions of fish started to disappear, and fisheries scientists and managers were stumped as to why. Was it because of climate change? Poaching on the high seas? A fluke of nature? In a desperate effort to solve the mystery - or at least appease the public - the Canadian Government commissioned an inquiry, which later became known as the Cohen Commission or Cohen Inquiry, and put the decline of the Fraser River sockeye on trial. Dozens of lawyers representing multiple stakeholders appeared at the Inquiry to present their theories, their views, and the results of numerous scientific studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Inquiry was recorded on camera by an independent filmmaker - perhaps a first in the history of Canadian federal inquiries. That filmmaker was often the only outside witness during the Inquiry's most riveting and revealing testimony. This book peels back the testimony of scientists and bureaucrats who revealed previously undisclosed information, much of it shocking - and all of it enlightening.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Inquiry was criticized for not finding the smoking gun. But the terms of reference set by the Government insisted that no blame should fall on anyone. This requirement itself suggests that politics may play a larger role than anything else in the demise of the iconic Fraser River sockeye.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Scott Renyard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Juggernaut Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781998836567\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRenyard, Scott:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Scott Renyard is a filmmaker, author, and scientist.
