Union says CFIA staff facing intimidation and threats over planned B.C. ostrich cull

May 26, 2025
The head of the union representing Canadian Food Inspection Agency workers says they have faced “intimidation and threats” amid heightened rhetoric since a Federal Court ruling upheld an order to cull hundreds of ostriches at a British Columbia farm.Agriculture Union president Milton Dyck said rocks were thrown at an agency vehicle in the region, and although he’s not certain it was related to the planned cull, online talk about harming workers is the “crossing of a line.”
