We are reaching the end of our @nichecanada.bsky.social fundraising campaign & we are still 31% away from our goal.

Why Canada isn't having the same bird flu/egg price crisis as US:

Avg size of Canada's egg farms ~ 23,000 hens
Avg size of American egg farms ~ 50,000 to 6 million hens

Canadian supply management = more livelihoods, keeps prices stable, and is safer.
