Why Canada’s Courts Shut Out Key Evidence and What’s Really at Stake
In this exclusive episode of The Lavigne Show, Jason Lavigne sits down with Dr. Steven Pelech, one of the scientific experts whose testimony was denied by the Federal Court in the case of the Universal Ostrich Farm in British Columbia.
For the first time, Dr. Pelech shares never-before-released information about the science behind ostrich immunity and why he believes these birds hold unique value for research. His perspective raises profound questions about why the flock of 400 ostriches is facing a government-ordered cull, and whether Canada is overlooking opportunities that could benefit medical science.
Topics we cover:
Why Dr. Pelech’s expert report was excluded from the court record
What his findings reveal about ostrich antibodies and future research potential
How does this information challenge the official narrative around the CFIA’s order
Why the decision to cull may have broader consequences for science, farming, and public trust
This conversation sheds light on the clash between public health policy, judicial decisions, and cutting-edge research—and helps explain why this story is far from over.

Due to the need to vote on several bills in the Legislature today, this interview with Hon. Mickey Amery will need to be rescheduled.
I'll post a new date and time as soon as I receive one.
Thanks!
Hi supporters,
It has been a long campaign and evening. Sadly, it appears that Team Lavigne won't be elected this time around.
We thank everyone who took the time to support us and got out to vote.
For the rest of the week, we are going to recharge, regroup, and get back to several projects that took a backseat to the campaign.
We'll be back next week ready to bring you even more shows, interviews, and truth.
Much love, God bless.
