My interview on Global News

 


Sometime ago I contacted the mayor of Saint-Laurent regarding dead and injured birds I had found at the base of glass railing at the city's library.  This led to the drafting and passing of a new by-law to help protect birds from crashing into glass on buildings.  

I was then invited to be interviewed with the mayor on CTV News and a few days later on Global News.

A short clip can be seen here:  Interview

  1. Well, good for you! 👏

    My only experience with something similar is having a demented robin continually attack our kitchen window. Sue hung a temporary aluminum plate to discourage it, and it worked.

    Thank you messymimi. You are so right about making one little corner better. Often all it takes is using our voice and being persistent.
