Agriculture Canada recently announced an investment of up to $1,697,850 to Animal Health Canada to support its role in foreign animal disease prevention and preparedness efforts in Canada, including for African swine fever and foot and mouth disease.
Animal Health Canada brings together the agriculture industry and federal, provincial and territorial partners to provide input on a cohesive, functional and responsive farmed animal health and welfare system in Canada.
Much of the funding will be used to proactively manage disease risks and to ensure proper response if there are outbreaks. This includes wild pig control, better disease surveillance and industry protocol development.
