    Proceedings of a Special Session held at Aquaculture CanadaOM 2005 in St. John's, Newfoundland, July 3-6.

    During the Aquaculture Canada conference held in St. John’s, NL on July 3-6, 2005, a special session was held to highlight the vital role that public awareness and education play in the development of the aquaculture industry.

Such messages include promoting awareness of aquaculture products as healthy and safe food choices, the types of work available in the industry, the various species being cultured, and the sustainable farming practices used by the industry.
