The Centre for Coastal Health recently completed a contract on behalf of the Cohen Commission of Inquiry into the Declines of Sockeye Salmon to examine the possible role of diseases associated with federal and provincial enhancement hatcheries on the recent decline of Fraser River sockeye salmon. This was one of several technical reports commissioned to inform the Inquiry about the current state of science associated with the multiple potential stressors on sockeye salmon.

Dr Craig Stephen spoke with CBC's "The Early Edition" following his testimony at the Cohen Commission.
