CP NewsAlert: CFIA fines B.C. ostrich farm over avian flu failures

May 30, 2025 | 6:28 PM

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says it has fined a British Columbia ostrich farm $20,000 for failing to co-operate with anti-avian flu measures, as the owners continue to resist a cull order.

It also says the farm has not substantiated claims of scientific research on the birds, and that the agency’s planning for a cull of the birds continues.

More coming.
