To the editor of the Sudbury Star,
(Published August 29, 2011 with minor editing)
Having been plagued by Canada geese on golf courses and at beaches for years, I read this article with great interest. But I note that, while scaring the geese off City property is beneficial for both the budget and the users, care is being taken not to harm them. Where are these geese going to go? I would be concerned if I were a private property owner with lake frontage not adjacent to a City park. The bottom line is that there are simply too many of these birds.
It did bring to mind the sacred cows in India during periods of famine. I wonder how many poor and homeless people could be fed by a single Canada goose?
