A family of Canada geese closed down parts of the Gardiner this morning
It wasn’t your typical traffic jam on the Gardiner this morning.
Earlier today, Toronto Police reported that the Gardiner was closed westbound at Kipling. The closure was because there was a family of Canada geese in the middle of the highway.

The good news is a couple of hours later the geese were escorted safely off the highway.
But in case you were wondering why the Gardiner was closed earlier, now you know. It was Canadian geese.
