I think for Pesach BumbleBee does a premium production in goldish-colored cans that is OU Kosher for Passover, and Bishul Yisrael as well. They're available a few weeks before Passover. – Shalom Dec 30 '10 at 23:35

If you are looking for Bishul Yisrael according to the opinion of the Rema(and thus Ashkenazim), yes there are. According to the Mechaber(and thus Sephardim), no there are not. There are a couple of brands that are imported from Israel that meet Sephardi criteria.

Do you know Hacham Ovadia's Teshuva about eating at restaurants? If so, do you think it applies to tuna? – Hacham Gabriel Mar 18 at 4:23
