My guest this week is Katie Pasitney, spokesperson for Universal Ostrich Farms in Edgewood, BC and daughter of Karen Esperson, owner of the unique ostrich research farm. Katie tells us about their ongoing fight with the CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) that wants to cull, kill, depopulate and eliminate their 400 healthy ostriches.
