If you would like to see reliable news reports from the ostrich farm, the BC Interior news source Castanet is updating this article.
Apparently the farm has been cleared of people not from the RCMP or CFIA, including some that have been arrested. The cull is expected to take place today or tomorrow though no timelines have been given.

Looks like the ostrich farm people have been arrested and the birds are going to be culled now. Here's the post I did about them a couple weeks ago.
Culling of the herd is simply what you do when you're farming. The nonsense culture war stuff is just that. Nonsense.

The fields surrounding the road were wheat, so I knew that at some point, a human being had to come up here, but on the day I was there, I had the road entirely to myself.
It felt as if it were mine, solely.

editing and boosting because seed catalogs are hitting the mailbox:
Because I was still on the mailing list for some reason, let me remind you to NOT BUY from #BakerCreekSeeds because of their blatant support of right wing ideologies and white supremacy.
Better options: High Mowing Seeds, Sow True Seed, Heritage Seed Market, Alliance of Native Seedkeepers, Southern Exposure Seed Exchange, Fedco Seed.

The scene at the #farm on Thursday was chaotic, with #federal agents wearing helmets & face #masks using #TearGas & smoke cannisters on #protesters, according to photos & videos of the scene.
Several #farmworkers were injured & one died on Friday from injuries sustained after a 30-foot fall from a building during the #raid, said Elizabeth Strater, national vice president of the #UnitedFarmWorkers.

The #Trump admin has made conflicting statements about whether #immigration agents will target #farmworkers, about half of whom are unauthorized to work in the US, per govt estimates.
#DHS said that ~200 people in the country illegally were arrested in the raid, which targeted 2 locations of the cannabis operation Glass House Farms.
Agents also found 10 immigrant minors at the #farm. The facility is under investigation for child labor violations, said #CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott.
