Some London-area butchers report that holiday turkey availability remains unchanged despite an avian influenza outbreak in Ontario, which has led to the culling of around 156,000 birds across six active outbreaks. Hayter’s Farm, a major turkey supplier, states it is not directly affected, but acknowledges potential future supply issues due to the impact on breeding farms. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency assures that properly cooked poultry is safe to eat and that demand for turkeys remains steady among consumers. Local butchers, including Pete Charlton’s Quality Meats and Western Meats, confirm ongoing orders and expect to fulfill holiday turkey requests.
