Attention:

Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs has issued a Minister’s Order under the Animal Health Act, 2009 due to confirmed cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N1) in Ontario domestic poultry. Effective September 23, 2022, this Order temporarily prohibits events where birds commingle, such as bird shows, bird sales and swaps, portions of fairs where birds are exhibited.
