ANGLER’S LOVE OF SALMON BLOSSOMS INTO BUSINESS SUPPORT FOR PACIFIC SALMON FOUNDATION
Last year, Accent Inns founder and chairman Terry Farmer attended a presentation about the state of wild Pacific salmon given by Pacific Salmon Foundation president Brian Riddell in Victoria. Not long after, Farmer, a long-time B.C. angler, sent the Foundation a personal donation and expressed an interest in having the Accent Inns hotel chain also support wild Pacific salmon conservation. Farmer’s personal commitment to salmon conservation has now blossomed into a business commitment through Accent Inns’ new Fish for the Future program.
