BREAKING: B.C. Ostrich cull likely to start this weekend, sources say
'This is the end of the line, this is where we rise up,' says ostrich farmer as cull reportedly days away.
Rebel News has a credible tip: Universal Ostrich Farms' healthy, avian flu-recovered flock likely faces a cull this weekend.
Sources report that a CFIA-contracted company is expected to arrive at the Edgewood farm Saturday evening to cull the herd by early next week.
Rebel News is withholding some operational details to protect source safety, but farmers are aware of the latest development.
I swear this ostrich is smiling over the good news.

“This kill of life, of heartbeats and the pitter-patter on the ground and the booming in our fields ... there’s going to be a bloodshed on Saturday, Sunday, Monday,” said farm spokesperson Katie Pasitney, the adult daughter of co-farm owner Karen Espersen.
This intel comes two days after farmers reported seeing military-grade helicopters flying low over their property at night until they shone their own light back.
“We’re at the end of the line. This is the end of the line. And this is where we stand up. This is where we rise up.”
Despite these ostriches being healthy for 247 days and not used for food, the CFIA refuses retesting, adhering to its WHO-inspired policy.

The Edgewood, B.C. farmers who have been trying to save their healthy herd from being senselessly slaughtered by Canada’s food inspection agency had a scare last night.

Though courts have sided with CFIA, farmers argue the naturally recovered birds offer scientific insight into avian flu resistance and immunity.
Rebel News is preparing to return to the farm to cover developments and urges peaceful action from viewers and readers.

CFIA needs a total rethink, especially since these birds are not part of the food supply chain. Are we killing birds and science to advance Big Pharma? Look inside yourself!
