Canada Geese in Victoria Park

From the City of Kitchener website: “Over the past several years, the population of geese in Victoria Park has reached levels that cause conflict with residents…Last year, traffic jams were caused from geese crossing Jubilee Drive, and the amount of goose droppings in the park affected visitors’ use of the park. “

Funny, but, unfortunately, quite true. Although it’s funny watching people stop to let the geese cross the road. By the way, I always thought geese migrated south in winter.

Not in the K-W area, apparently.

The Parks Department (or whatever they’re called) should ask UW how they deal with the 1,000 or so geese that roam their campus

UW doesn’t… they just leave the geese on the greenspace and walkways. Take a walk around ring road in spring/summer one day… it’s a game of “avoiding geese crap”.

Now that we have less greenspace, I’m sure that it’s even worse.
