An open season with shotguns would do the job nicely.

Now that just makes too much sense!

Exactly what I say. We have loads of geese here in a preservation in Westchester, New York that are not Canadian. They breed like rabbits and start feeding on people's lawns. Every once in a while they start killing them to keep down the population. Its a simple solution not one that should involve the government.

I second that!!! You could always feed some poor people in New York City with the geese (providing the b-b's pellets are removed...)

I think part of the problem is that these "Canada" geese are covered under the migratory bird treaty.
So, it is more than a simple US government regulation, that you can't "wack them."
And I think this is even though most of these geese never go to Canada anymore.
