The protesters acquire as ostrich to be killed at the fears of chicken flu in BC Farm

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) says that in the south -western BC, the villain of the herds of ostrich will proceed to fight the threat of avian flu, but it would not provide the details of the operation in advance.

The notice comes as a notice because the supporters of the farm are gathered in Edgwood, BC to try to stop it.

CFIA says it is proceeding with one after the other Court verdict issued on 13 May It was found that the agency had followed the appropriate procedures to take decisions to order the process, and that there is a comprehensive mandate to take decisions from the Canadian government.

However, in the case, the judge said that he expressed sympathy with the farm for economic and emotional tolls for the loss of his birds, he also wrote in his judgment that the malignant bird should be balanced against the more and more public good associated with the CFIA work to prevent the spread and mutation of the disease.

In response to the ruling, CFIA confirmed one Written statement This will “Human Dipulation and Birds of Birds will proceed with veterinary oversight in these infected premises.”

“Operating plans and dates will not be shared with the public in advance,” the statement said.

The owner urges supporters for ‘surround’ farm

Meanwhile, the supporters of Universal Astrich have started gathering around the property to show their solidarity with the owners in the hope of preventing the owners from moving forward.

The case has attracted significant attention from the groups that they believe that Kalla order is the government’s overrech and even US Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s attention is attracted, who was asked about it during an interview at a New York radio show last month and told the host that he was “afraid of the idea that he was going to kill these animals.”

Katie Pasitney, whose mother is the co-owner of the farm, has called for a peaceful protest and said that they are looking for legal measures, which can be tried to prevent the verdict from being excluded.

In a video message posted on Facebook, Pasitney’s mother, Karen Esparson urged supporters to “come around” and “let them do so for these beautiful animals”.

“We have taken many years to be able to be able to make these people domesticated, walking among these people,” he said, passing through the herd. “We love these people. They are all happy and healthy. If we are not standing for it … what kind of world have we become?”

The family says that the outbreaks have cured animals and are happy and healthy, due to developing Pasitney claims that the “herd is immune” for the virus, which makes birds more valuable than the dead for researchers.

He has argued that those who live by birds should be retired to see if they still have a disease and if not, it should be allowed to live and study.

In an interview with CBC News, he said, “Let’s take his blood. Let’s do an analysis. Let’s study a control,” he said in an interview with CBC News.

“As long as we have migratory birds, we will have avian influenza, so it is not a solution to erase all our livestock and hurt our farmers.”

On Wednesday, he said that about 40 supporters had already arrived, and with the possibility of more.

Animal rights groups have weight

The Farm is also supporting a letter-writing campaign targeted in the regional district of Central Kotaney, which requests that it does not accept the dead ostrich on the local landfill.

The regional district of the Central Kootenay spokesman Dan Elliot says that it received a landfill certificate to handle the dead ostrich in January, no information would be a possible pen after connecting the district.

“In response to the need to manage the Avian Influenza disease, the regional district of Central Cotane has received an operational certificate from the provincial ministry of Environment and Parks, which is to handle the disposal of waste -infected waste -infected waste disposal from the avian influenza, if he moves ahead of Osterich,” Iliat is called Iliat.

Meanwhile, an animal law group has urged the federal government to stop Kulla and consider “Is it still understanding how much time has passed since the initial order is issued.”

“Evian flu is a devastating disease that should be taken seriously, but these ostrich should not be forced to pay for the failures of a broken system,” Saying the Animal Justice Director of Legal Advocacy, Kitinalin Mitchell. “Evian flu outbreaks are provoked by large -scale factory farming, yet these are individual birds that pay the final value.”

Agency says

However, the CFIA says that its policy of killing all animals in domestic flocks where avian flu is detected is necessary to incorporate the disease, which has the ability to mutate and even spread in other animals and even humans, such as a teenager in BC was hospitalized for several weeks after being infected.

“A domestic poultry allows herd that HPAI is to be exposed to survive, allows to maintain a potential source of virus. It will increase the possibility of re -evaluation or mutation, especially with birds raised in open pastures where wildlife is in contact with wildlife. It can also increase human health risk,” it is said in the statement.

“Our illness reaction aims to protect both public and animal health, as well as to reduce the effects on the $ 6.8 billion domestic poultry industry and Canadian economy.”

In the court’s verdict, it was noted that the universal $ 3,000 per animal killed in ostrich.

Judges are not convinced of the arguments of the farm

The ruling also notes that the scientific evidence with Justice Russell Zinnan does not depend on the courts weighing scientific evidence, “The courts generally remain out of scientific debate,” and instead it is the place of “technical bodies”, such as CFIA “deciding on complex, expertise-led cases”.

In the ruling, which is “tall” on more than 100 pages, by its own entry, the decisions around Zin, Cool and explain in detail about the arguments made by universal ostrich.

The ruling after receiving an anonymous tip by CFIA, starting with the inspection of the universal ostrich, also told the steps taken to order Cull that the dead shriers were seen in the field in December 2024. It was later confirmed that 25 to 30 omnipotions died in December, a number that would increase to the middle of 69.

CFIA inspectors visited the farm in late December and collected samples from two dead birds, which were later confirmed the avian flu. At the same time, the ruling states, inspectors noted the fact that the wild birds, including ducks, were mixed with ostrich in an outer farm and in the ostrich feeding area, resulting in further broadcasting of diseases.

As a result of positive testing, the farm was given notice that its entire herd would have to be hit later, after the CFIA policy.

At the same time, Zin found, the CFIA also provided information to the farm as to how to apply to apply for a discount, which would include evidence that birds were considered rare or unique that were spared. Ways to prove this include reproductive books, recognition from a certified breed association or poultry industry, or specific genomic test.

Although the farm presented its case that it had commercial plans to research the ostrich antibodies and its flocks, the CFIA did not find that it fulfills its standards for discounts, and that the kulle would proceed according to the order.

The ruling noted that the CFIA’s decision is based on public health and economic decisions, including Canada’s ability to participate in international trade, which is why financial compensation is given to people affected by total orders.

Decision cannot be converted into Hindight: Judge

Zin also said that till now, only one discount has been given, in the case of 2022 of a turkey farm, where the avian flu was detected in two barn, but not in the premises, because those animals were done to prevent the potential spread of the disease between different and different structures, which are not present between the universal oatrics, “Collection policy.

The ruling also raised the issue with the argument of the farm that the CFIA lacks expertise to create governance on the ostrich as its policies are designed for more common poultrys such as chickens and Turkey, given that the agency has a long history of regulating Osterich and Ams.

And this rejected the argument that, because those who have survived the ostrich, they cannot be infected or contagious, the order given in December should be overturned.

“The judicial review should never be held with the benefits of Hindite,” Zin wrote. “Although the infection ended with survival with several ostrich later, it could not happen at that time. The Stamping-Out Policy directed the agency to remove the entire exposed epidemic unit without delay.”
