The video footage is enough to put people off eating farmed salmon for life:
The salmon farm in the video is owned by Cooke Aquaculture which market fish via the True North brand promoted by Martha Stewart who in 2019 claimed that she visited Cooke's salmon farms in Maine and "saw first-hand their innovative and industry leading methods of sustainable farming".
