A strain of North American bird flu virus which is "low pathogenic" was found in another commercial farm in Canada's western province of British Columbia, a health official announced on Tuesday.

The farm is within a radius of five kilometers of the Fraser Valley Duck and Goose Farm in Chilliwack, east of Vancouver, where a duck has tested positive for the H5 bird flu virus, the official with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency told reporters in a televised conference Tuesday afternoon.
