If you are in attendence, its not a key meeting. Its called a public meeting and in most cases, its not where the decisions are made. Its amusing that you want cca to dive into the hydro fight and the way you do it is to denounce them, turn others against membership and thus the amount of volunteers who will do the bulk of the work. Perhaps you can name a non profit that is involved in every single issue that affects salmon? Can't please everybody.... People forget your background is commercial fishing and I cant remember a post where you came out against gillnetting.
