They called it “biosecurity” and “stamping out,” but we showed you the truth:
Hundreds of healthy, untested ostriches, senselessly gunned down in the dark on a peaceful family farm.
Now, Rebel News is ready to unveil Culling The Cure: The Aftermath of Canada’s Ostrich Slaughter, a full investigative documentary examining why the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, with RCMP support, spent millions of taxpayer dollars to turn Universal Ostrich Farms into a killing field.
This wasn’t just about one farm.
And it wasn’t just about disease control.
It’s about science, policy, and power.
The farmers argued their healthy birds were part of ongoing antibody research that could have helped protect future flocks from avian flu culls. The state said they had no value worthy of exemption.
We’ve traveled from the Rocky Mountains to the Arizona desert, from New York City to the halls of Parliament in Ottawa, following the evidence to determine who is right.
This story is bigger than ostriches.
It raises serious questions about how governments use “animal health” policies, how dissent is handled when citizens push back, and whether scientific opportunity was sacrificed in the name of bureaucratic control.
Rebel News was there from the beginning — reporting from inside the farm, documenting the cull, covering the legal battles, questioning officials, and securing footage the public was never meant to see.
Now we need your help to get this film in front of Canadians.
The premiere screening tour across Canada is underway — real theatres, real audiences, in cities from coast to coast. The world premiere in Kelowna on September 18 is just the beginning, with stops planned for Abbotsford, Calgary, Red Deer, Edmonton, Toronto, and Quebec City. Every stop means venue rental, projection and sound, staffing, security, promotion, and getting our team there in person.
The more we raise, the more cities we can take this to — and the more Canadians will see what their government did in Edgewood.
If you believe this story must be told, please consider supporting the premiere tour. And if you want the film to play in your city, tell us where you are — we’re booking theatres where the demand is.
Help us show the world what really happened.
