US EditionLaw professor would be ‘surprised’ if High Court takes up B.C. ostrich farm case
Universal Ostrich Farms challenges emergency administrative powers in court to halt a cull order affecting up to 400 ostriches, seeking clarity on evolving policy application.
- A single judge temporarily halted the directive to cull the birds at Universal Ostrich Farms, allowing all nine Supreme Court justices to review the farm’s appeal.
- The farm challenges the cull by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, seeking to address administrative law issues related to emergency powers amid evolving facts.
- Previous legal arguments have already been dismissed by the Federal Court of Appeal, and the court is expected to concentrate on the case's legal aspects while likely disregarding the public controversy on social media.
- A University of Ottawa law professor expressed doubt that the Supreme Court of Canada will agree to hear the case, noting that the legal questions involved are neither particularly new nor complex.
- The outcome will clarify how courts handle emergency powers in administration, but it remains uncertain if the Supreme Court will take this case for full review.
