[span class="date"]Monday, March 26, 2007[/span] [/li][li id="blog"] With Easter just around the corner we're getting ready to hear all the heartwarming stories about how we are feeding the homeless. We'll hear about all the well meaning volunteers who are down there on skid row handing out heaping portions of mashed potatoes, turkey and vegetables and a lovely dessert to top it off, makes you heart sing, doesn't it. Well here's one for you, Detroit has decided to take turkey off the menu and change that part of the dinner to goose, and where do you think those goose dinners are coming from? You guessed it, the streets of Detroit. Much like the streets of Vancouver where the non migratory geese are becoming more of a problem, Michigan officials are concerned about the ecoli problem that comes from the abundance of geese droppings. So it's time to cull the flock they think. Anyone who's walked through Stanley Park or around Lost Lagoon, or places like that, even the areas in the Concord Development in Yale Town know that you slip and slide your way through the goose dung trying to sip on your Starbucks. I think we should follow the lead of Detroit; reduce some of our goose problem and in doing so feed the homeless. Goose has been served as a holiday staple for centuries, just read Charles Dickens. I think it's time to revisit this tradition and kill two birds with one stone, pardon he pun.
