New York billionaire says he is helping fund legal fight to stop cull of B.C. ostriches

August 27, 2025

A New York billionaire who is an avid supporter of U.S. President Donald Trump says he is helping fund the legal battle by a British Columbia ostrich farm against an order to cull their flock of about 400 birds after an avian flu outbreak.

John Catsimatidis says he and a friend have contributed about US$35,000 to the legal fight by Universal Ostrich Farms in Edgewood in B.C.’s Interior, to stop the cull ordered by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
