That does happen. Unfortunately, with the issue in my riding at Jumbo farms in Fort MacLeod, many of those protestors were on a hog farm in Abbotsford, B.C. the week before. They could very easily have been carrying a virus or a disease from one farm to another.
That's really what we're trying to avoid. If they were protesting at a farm in another province or another district and certainly with another breed, we want to ensure that they are caught the first time and consequences are laid there before they have the opportunity to spread that disease to a second operation.
