“I don’t know if I could underestimate how devastating it would be if the tariffs were implemented for more than a week or two,” said Nick Dicarlo, sales director for Cermaq Canada, one of three large salmon farming companies operating in B.C. “I don’t know if anybody would survive that.”
“We’re already seeing layoffs,” said Brian Kingzett, executive director for the BC Salmon Farmers Association.
