BCIT and Dr. Mark Angelo releases chum salmon at Guichon Creek

Salmon Release on Guichon Creek

On April 14, 2026, Dr. Mark Angelo, renowned river conservationist, author, speaker, educator, and BCIT Honorary Doctor of Technology, led the annual chum salmon release at Guichon Creek. Dr. Jeff Zabudsky, BCIT President, BCIT students, daycare children, and guests celebrated the ongoing restoration of this once-polluted urban waterway.

The salmon release event stands as a testament to BCIT’s ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability and the power of community action to restore natural habitats, even in urban settings. Thank you to everyone who participated in this “fintastic” event!
