Last December, the CFIA ordered the farm's flock of 400 birds be culled. It also fined the farm's owners after 69 birds died on the farm from avian flu in December and January.

The court upheld the CFIA's cull order, deeming it necessary in the ongoing battle against avian flu. The farm then appealed to the Federal of Appeal, which in July reserved its decision until a later date. However, it issued a stay of the cull while it reviews the lower court's decision. The farm had also asked for an order permitting it to conduct diagnostic tests on the birds and to suspend any directives from the food inspection agency prohibiting such tests, but the FCA judge denied both requests without explanation. Meanwhile, it set up a website aimed at rallying support, while also asking for donations to its legal fund. Supporters surrounded the farm as a human shield at one point, following the lower court decision. John Catsimatidis, founder and chairman of Red Apple Group Inc. Photo by Scott Eells / Bloomberg The nine-foot tall birds, which are native to Africa, became a passion project for Catsimatidis after he heard about Katie Pasitney, the daughter of the farm's owners and her campaign to save the animals. Catsimatidis recruited Dr. Mehmet Oz, the head of U.S. Medicare and Medicaid, as well as Robert Kennedy Jr., U.S. health secretary, to help with his mission. The battle over the birds began in mid-December when 69 ostriches are believed to have died from the H5N1 virus, or bird flu. Pasitney insists someone made an anonymous call to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency claiming that the birds had avian flu. After the deaths, CFIA officials visited the farm and tested two dead birds. After the results came back positive for the H5N1, the farm was put under quarantine. Then the CFIA ordered a cull of the entire herd, part of its efforts to 'stamp out' the disease, which has led to more than eight million birds being infected in B.C.
