Photographer captures 20-minute clash between birds emblematic of Canada and US amid high trade tensions

Summary

A Canada goose successfully fended off a bald eagle in a rare 20-minute battle on a frozen lake in Burlington, Ontario.

Captured by photographer Mervyn Sequeira, the encounter took on symbolic meaning amid rising tensions between Canada and the U.S., sparked by Donald Trump’s trade policies and comments about annexation.

The confrontation paralleled recent national pride moments, including Canada’s overtime hockey victory against the U.S.

    If you’ve got a problem with Canada goose then you have a problem with me and I suggest you let that Marinate.

      I think we should all take a good look in the mirror and ask ourselves, where we would be, without the Canada gooses.
