Canadian National Bird debate - Catherine - 11-18-2016
There is a debate on about what bird should be Canada's National Bird.
This is the list of contenders.

There are some good choices there, but it looks like the Grey Jay will win.

The Grey Jay or Whiskey Jack may be a special bird, but he doesn't visit Toronto. So maybe Toronto needs its own bird.

Again there are good choices, but we should go with the pigeon. They even ride the subways like the rest of Torontonians.
I thought we already had a National Bird.
