    Description

    The Canadian Food Inspection Agency requires the transportation and slaughter of cattle from (TB) Tuberculosis affected farms in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

    This work has been divided into 2 separate streams of work Stream 1: Slaughter and Stream 2: Transportation.

    Stream 1 (Slaughter):
    The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) requires the slaughtering of cattle as part of the investigation to determine the presence of Bovine Tuberculosis and/or herd depopulation for confirmed cases.

As such, Canada has adopted a mandatory national eradication program since 1923 to keep Canada officially free of bovine TB. Under the national eradication program, exposed cattle are ordered humanely destroyed to control the spread of the disease.

    Stream 2 (transport):
    The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) requires the transportation of cattle from (TB) Tuberculosis affected farms to designated slaughter facilities in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

    Contract duration

    The estimated contract period will be 12 month(s).
