"I get calls from reporters, here in Canada, and they say, 'We're hearing all this about eggs,'" von Massow says. "And I say, "Well, that's in the U.S. It's not happening here."March 18, 2025

Canadian chickens can catch avian flu, just like their American cousins. But the impact on Canada's egg supply has so far been limited.

Perhaps the biggest difference is that egg farms in Canada are much smaller, so when one farm does suffer a flu outbreak, the effects are less far-reaching. The typical egg farm in Canada has about 25,000 laying hens, whereas many farms in the U.S. have well over a million. In effect, American farmers have put a lot more of their eggs in a relatively small number of baskets."
