The article only addresses the highlights of the meeting. There was much more to it (I attended the meeting). Including:
-lots of concern about high cormorant numbers
-in order to do fish counts, biologists net (kill) fish. They kill thousands of fish in some lakes each time they survey a lake. The accuracy and need for this method was questioned and criticized
-the MLAs that attended were Wildrose/PC, nobody from the current provincial government (NDP) attended
-there was a concern and high criticism of the government biologists, and fish/wildlife employees in general
-there was concern about a perceived steep decline in perch numbers
