As the Supreme Court of Canada considers whether to hear the case of a B.C. farm that's fighting to save its ostriches from a CFIA cull, politicians in Ottawa appear to be choosing their words on the matter very carefully.

    The stamping out policy is a major factor for the cull. The issues on the farm from what I remember were:

    • No quarantine zones for sick animals.
    • The Ostriches had access to shared resources with numerous wild animals like water sources.
    • The people on the farm were not wearing the proper protective gear when handling the animals.
    • The animals were not isolated from contact with visitors.
