Number one grade canned sockeye salmon is not available for sale in Canada. It is only for export. Kind of sucks, but even employees at fish canneries have a hard time getting it. If you know anyone who works at Canadian Fish, they might be able to get it.

If you can get it, it will be in 1/4 lb cans. Number one 1/2 lb cans are very rare. The stuff fetches high dollars overseas, so that's another reason why it's hard to get. Ocean Fisheries has staff sales. They may have number one sockeye 1/4's.

Even though they had so much sockeye this year, canned salmon can last for 5 years or more before it even starts to degrade. So, I don't think they will have a surplus. Plus, I think the local canneries were so caught off guard with the huge runs that they ran out of cans, LOL. Actually the supplier, Ball Packaging, kind of screwed up.
