A reader:

They’ve long since decided to stay put in the US, but Canadian Geese, being, from, well, Canada (at least many generations back), are still classified as “migratory” and thus can’t be shot in many states. The madness of bureaucracy, or environmentalists, or big-government types, or all of the above.
Come to think, I see a parallel here: Come here “temporarily” or “seasonally,” decide to stay, receive benefits. Lord knows the great-grandchildren of legalized illegal aliens will still receive some special benefit as a “minority,” I’m sure.

[Me] I’m sure you’re right, Sir; but at least let’s try to make sure they don’t get pooping rights in our public parks.

A lot of readers are commiserating on this. The wretched geese are all over.

Let’s face facts here: From top to (goose) bottom, Canada is a MISTAKE.
