Happy to see resolution for this case of anti-health, anti-vax, quackery and grifting.
I believe most farmers are ethical and understand that disease within their flocks and herds can and do cause disease in other domestic and wild populations and those diseases are often what causes pandemics in humans.
Avian flu is a danger. Millions of birds have died because of it, and have been culled on other farms to try to control it.
Ostriches are no different.

FOSS power user laptop choice in 2025:
"
* 998 people running [Apple] M1 from 2005
* many Lenovo/Framework/Dell users, everything runs great, battery is bad, sound and display are so/so
* 30 people use laptops from all corners of galaxy that no one heard of, they swear everything is great (probably not)
* a few billionaires who moved from M4 to M5, haven't had time to unpack it yet, seems to work fast!"

This John Catsimatidis guy can just F right off. If he cared so much about the birds he could have sent trucks to have them taken away... of course.. good luck with US Border agents letting birds in that have been exposed to Avian Flu and have an active CFIA cull order on them.
I feel bad for the people who feel so connected to the birds themselves. Some people simply won't understand and I feel sympathy for them. But the owners of the ranch have always known better and they have used this to raise money and increase their profile.
And now we get the crocodile tears as the adults have finally taken over.
I hope this is the last we ever hear about Universal Ostrich.

Jason Proctor is contributing to the CBC's live blog scroll from a legal perspective and as always, his stuff is illumniating. I'll paste his report in because it can get lost in the scroll easily.
"Creditors circle as cull looms
Jason Proctor
I'm Jason Proctor, a reporter with CBC Vancouver who looked into a series of lawsuits facing the owners of Universal Ostrich Farms Inc.
Last month, I spoke with three creditors who are watching today's ruling with great interest — and some skin in the game.
B.C. Supreme Court judges have ordered the farm's owners to repay debts worth more than $250,000 but, up until now, the creditors have been unable to collect. Normally in this kind of situation, a creditor would move to seize the business assets — but because in this case those assets are ostriches caught up in a legal battle, that's been challenging, to say the least.
All three creditors have tried to garnish the CFIA to intercept any money the agency might pay out as compensation for killing the birds (potentially up to $3,000 a bird, the CFIA says) but it remains to be seen how that will work. The creditors, however, told me they are anxious to recoup their losses.”
