Another meat processing plant in Alberta has been affected by COVID-19, with one employee at Bouvry Exports testing positive earlier this week.
Bouvry Exports processes a variety of meats, including beef, bison, elk, and horse. Its location just off Highway 3 near Fort Macleod, Alta.
processes approximately 1,000 animals each week. After Global News confirmed the positive case on April 30, residents of the small town voiced concern over a potential spread, not unlike those seen in Brooks and High River. “We’re in for big trouble in town and our seniors home, where spouses of some work and businesses are all intertwined,” Facebook user Patsy Rigeaux wrote.
