Vote for Canada's National Bird
...oops, too late
Our neighbours to the south have the bald eagle, Australia has the emu, and New Zealanders are often referred to as "kiwis."
But if you can't name Canada's national bird, there's a good reason — the country doesn't have one.
That's why, last year, Canadian Geographic magazine launched a national contest aimed at picking a bird which could represent the True North.
Canadians from across the country have voted online for their favourites, in a contest closing at midnight ET on Aug. 31, 2016.
