    Geese are so aggressive because when they return, it is in the spring. They are nesting and hatching young. They become very territorial and extremely protective at that time and will attack anyone or anything that comes to close. Since they eat grass and nest near water, they tend to nest in city parks, putting them in close proximity to people. I once saw a goose attacking and tree branch that fell too close to their nest. In late summer and fall, the Geese are quite chill and do not attack very often. Sorry for the long-winded rant.😅

      Yes, exactly. They often have eggs, or young around. It's not uncommon for smaller, tree nesting birds to swoop down at you, in mock attacks if you get to close to a nest. Geese are basically doing the same, except they can run at you, and are big, and confident enough to not have to bluff.

Moose are more loners and rarely travel in large numbers,are even bigger and have much more distinctive antlers (moreflat,broader almost like the palm of ones hand),although elk can have very large impressive racks as well.

    Growing up in Nova Scotia we lived a 20 minute walk from school - so - too close to take the school bus. That meant meant 4 trips to/from school each day in the rain, sun or snow. Once to school in this morning (20min), once 20 min home at lunch (eat and watch cartoons for 15 min), walk back to school(20min), then 20min home after school to play outdoors for a couple hours. Good times.

    Last night my husband and I watched a video from last winter. A guy had been treed by a bull moose in the city where our daughter lives. (Red Deer, Alberta) The guy wisely stayed up the tree for 20 minutes while being circled by the moose, and waited a further 10 minutes after it left before getting down. This is a good way to deal with an angry moose, provided you can climb high enough, quickly enough!

    "Rogers" refers to the 2022 communications outage that affected 12M internet and phone service customers bringing many peoples lives and businesses to a standstill. It's an oligopoly of which the 2 main providers are Bell and Rogers. Telus is the smallest player of them.

    The Growing up Canadian Starter pack:
    * Zellers was the discount department store brand for the Hudson's Bay Company (yes the same company that started Canada in the 1700's). Nowadays "The Bay" is more of a higher end retailer (or tries to pretend to be), and their Zellers brand was sold off to Target in the early 2000's (who promptly fumbled the roleout of Target in Canada, forcing them to retreat). Zellers is sort've coming back because it has a lot of brand recognition (people tend to remember things like Club-Zed points, Zeddy, the teddy bear mascot, and the greasy spoon diner most Zellers had), but as far as actual Department stores go, their niche is covered by Walmart, Giant Tiger and Canadian Tire for the most part now.
    * YTV Is "Youth Television", a cable channel focused on kids programming, similar to Nickolodean. (in fact they aired a lot of Nick shows in Canada). They had dedicated after school blocks hosted by "PJs" (Program Jockeys). As an easter egg, ReBoot (one of the first computer animated TV shows) had an episode called "Talent Night". YTV aired ReBoot, so Mainframe entertainment included YTV's robot mascot as a background character. (I think in the Canadian airing of the eps, the mascot even had the YTV logo, while in the US airings it just had a bare chest). They also aired "Are you afraid of the dark"
    * Much is "Much Music", Canada's version of MTV. They were the Cable TV channel dedicated to Music and Music videos. Like MTV, nowadays they air more misc shows than actual music sadly.
    And on another Meme, I've been across the Hartland Covered Bridge. It's just an hour up the highway from me. :) It's a quaint little village, and the covered bridge is in the heart of it, crossing the Saint John River. Just a few klicks up river there's a larger more standard bridge crossing to handle highway traffic (from back when that was the Trans Canada Highway; now it's just a local road). The Covered Bridge itself is wooden. It is one lane wide, with a separate pedestrian crossing to the side (that is also covered). You would wait at either end for traffic to clear, and cross. I think very technically it is two lane, but everyone tends to treat it as a one way shared bridge.
    New Brunswick is actually known for its covered bridges, but we've lost a lot of them through the years and decades. I think we're down to a dozen or so remaining for the most part. But the Hartland bridge is the world's longest and is still well maintained.

    The one dollar bill joke, it's a $20 and that's only worth $1 on currency markets. The Rogers meme, in BC we had 2 telecom companies, Shaw and Telus. Rogers is Canada-wide and just combined with Shaw making it the biggest in Canada. Canada geese protecting their nests and their young are like swans, very aggressive. Zellers was Canadas answer to Target. In fact when they closed down the location closest to me became a Target! Then Target went out of business in Canada and now we are getting Zellers reopening.The kids walking through the snow...one year we had snow so deep it was over the heads of the little ones. The school custodian dug a path from the school door to the road, the principal stood at the side of the road, the parents drove up to the principal and let the kids out and they were walked up to the door through the trench. 🤣 🤣 🤣 We were good, I drove a 4x4.

    the geese are a aggressive *because* after flying back north to Canada, it is then mating season and since the goslings do not start flying until at least *two to three months old* . So yes the geese are very protective of their *babies* as wildlife is. There are *wildlife crossings* over some highways including underpasses (tunnels) & overpasses (bridges) . The wildlife do use these crossings. it is awesome because some of them have web cams, and can be watched online

    I'm older and we used to get crazy amounts of snow in some places. In Prince George BC when I was a kid they would pile the snow up on the median on some routes and you couldn't see the cars on the opposing lane until the spring thaw the snow banks were so high.
    In New Brunswick the St. Patty's day storm was famous. One year we got so much snow dumped all the roads were closed for three days. Back in those days the Mounties had a single cherry light on the top of their cruisers. We had one great photo from the local detachment where that was all you could see of the cop car.

    Both Alberta and Texas are a mix of Ranches and Oil Field. We both tend to be more conservative because part of ranching and farming is the freedom that comes with your own land, and conservative politics tend to emphasize less government control.
    In terms of the trucks, both working out in the oil field and on farms mean large trucks are needed. Vehicles are bigger for different reasons, one just being you drive much further distances in Canada to get literally anywhere, so having a bit more space in the vehicle makes the trip a little more comfortable.

    similarities between Texas and Alberta include common industries such as agriculture (grain or livestock depending on location) outdoor tourism (camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, skiing, snowmobiling), resource extraction (oil, natural gas, mining, and forestry). Also Alberta and Texas have the shared history of the Wild West frontier days (from the 1850's through to roughly the First World War). In fact appx 430 of the 1300 troopers who served under Theodore Roosevelt in Puerto Rico during the Spanish American war were from the Canadian side of the Northern Prairies.

    IN any service industry, human error occurs, orders will be wrong.. this is due to the face that they're paid low wages, It's not 1960s anymore, most people who work there know that it's low wages, and a dead end job. you're not going to get rocket scientist driven work ethic... and it's due to the fact that they get so many orders where the expectancy is in minutes. regardless if it's 1 item or 20 sandwiches. Even rocket scientists would get this wrong occasionally when they deal with thousands of orders every single day.
    And so at some point people are going to know someone who has their own personal story of a wrong order, or they themselves will have one. And it's easy to disparage a minimum wage employee about it, and it gives a dopamine hit of superiority to them. When someone who gets paid very high to do they job makes mistakes over and over again they can't get away with abusing the employees. Just look at their government. Their government hasn't stopped screwing up and there is no repercussion for it.

    ❤Canadian geese are monogamous and stay together throughout their life time, the male protective of the dam and both protective of yearlings. They are not so much aggressive as territorial. If one of the mates gets sick or ails, the other will stay with their mate til better or unhappily death. They have do not necessarily mate again but become the elders…. Canadian Geese have been considered the logo of Canadian tenacity.
    The bacon in the pan looked familiar to you because it was actually depicting the logo of the Canadian Broadcasting Company (CBC).
    Moose are HUGE! My brother was in our rowboat on a lake in Quebec and decided to play with a moose call….it was the call of a female rose and the male moose were in rutt at this time….suddenly we heard this crashing thru the bush as a bull male raced and swam towards my brother. You have never seen someone row so fast in all your life. My dad had to shoot a gun in the air to deter the moose…
    Silly boy!

    Let me tell you, the Canada goose can be a nasty creature. I just had one refuse to let me out the door to catch a bus. Two buses later, I made it home. Moose are so plentiful in New Brunswick that a fence runs along the roads to keep them penned in, otherwise they love to charge the car, especially at night. Alberta is oil country, like Texas.

    The animals on the highway overpass are elk, I believe. Moose are bigger than elk. Rogers is a telecommunications company. In my home province of Ontario, the ice chunks which form underneath and behind a car’s tires are called “carburgs”. Instant mashed potatoes are potato flakes in Canada, not a fine powder. The hockey sticks on the ground are how people are choosing their teams. The green bill is $20 Canadian currency. Someone calling it the “new $1 bill” is being facetious since our dollar is worth less than $1 US. It’s true that there are a few doggy daycare businesses in Canada which pick up family pets in their buses once or twice a week and take them to play parks etc., then bring them home. The pets have their friend groups and sit together on the buses. The parkades in some provinces have spaces which are designed for larger vehicles. Albertans are known for their love of large SUVs and pickup trucks. The Schneiders brand of cold meat is for real. The Schneider meat processing plant is in Kitchener, Ontario, where I used to live. Kitchener is also home to the Dare Cookie Company and Weston Foods, maker of Colonial Cookies. On warm summer nights, where my home was situated in Kitchener, I could smell cookies everywhere. Yes, that’s what going to school in winter looks like in most of the country and yes, that was my reality growing up in Ontario. 🥴 I believe another person mentioned that the bacon in the pan was cut in sections to form the symbol for the CBC network. The CBC has had this logo for decades. A little extra info about Canada geese: while the males are especially aggressive during mating season, we have always been warned that geese are generally very intolerant of humans getting even slightly too close and will react. You never turn your back on a Canada goose because they are unpredictable, persistently mean and hold a grudge! I hope this helps you and that you and your family doing well! 🇨🇦😊👍🏻

    0:50 That's most likely a pedestrian bridge, or a railway bridge.
    1:20 Rogers is a telecom company, and telecom compagnies are generally hated in Canada.
    2:20 We do eat rather rich food during winter in Canada. The reason that our population isn't anywhere near as fat is that your body consumes a lot of calories during winter just to keep you warm.
    3:10 That's loose dunnage which is actually illegal. Police will stop you if they catch you. It only takes a small amount of ice to punch right through the windshield of the person following you.
    5:00 Canada is extremely resourceful and inventive. This is a direct result of Canada being a society of immigrants. The interactions between peoples of different cultures and backgrounds allows us to be at the forefront of innovation in many domains. A lot of the stuff which ends up being produced in the US was invented or designed in Canada.
    5:44 That's the queen of England. They were supposed to change the design with the ascensions of Charles III, but it seems that it has not yet happened, and to be honest, he just does not enjoy the same notoriety in Canada as the queen did.
    7:06 Trucks are quite common outside of large cities. With Canada being such a large country, there are large portions that are rather rural.

    The Bacon is placed so it makes the CBC logo ( Canadian Broadcasting Company ). I love our Canada Geese, it seems Ontario has more animosity towards them. I have never been pecked nor attacked once and have even been close to the goslings. I can’t wait for their Spring arrival. We would always go to St. Vital Park ( Winnipeg ). They would be there in huge numbers as for some it was just a temporary stopover before flying further north. I would always have a generous bag of “ cracked corn “ that I would purchase from a bird seed store that specializes in wild bird seed. You become a friend for life to those who benefitted from the seed. They do NOT forget you! So every spring, my “ group “ would run to greet us for their hand out.
