Are Americans more compassionate towards animals than Canadians? They should do something about the annual baby seal hunt too, how vicious some people in Canada are. What a mark some leave on Canadas reputation.

It is said that you can best judge a nation by how they treat the most vulnerable...


High-profile officials in the U.S. federal government, along with a prominent billionaire, are now weighing in on the fate of a flock of ostriches ordered killed on a farm in a remote part of the B.C. Interior.

Former TV host Dr. Mehmet Oz, who is now the administrator for the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, has offered to relocate the birds to his ranch in Florida, as first reported by the New York Post.

CBC News has confirmed the offer with Katie Pasitney, who is acting as a spokesperson for Universal Ostrich in Edgewood, B.C., which is co-owned by her mother. She said Oz had called the farm Monday morning to discuss the offer, and they were considering it, but in a later interview with the Canadian Press, she said they are not interested in relocating the birds.
