This report outlines a framework for understanding and assessing salmon habitats in the Canadian portion of the Columbia River. It contains seven sections: historical context, current habitat conditions, a habitat framework, synthesis of habitats, assessment approaches, recommendations, and a glossary. The report does not provide quantitative information on specific habitats due to limited data, but serves as a foundation for future data collection. It prioritizes Indigenous knowledge in the efforts to restore Pacific Salmon to the upper Columbia River in Canada, benefiting the ecosystem and local communities.
