Thanks, Dan, and thanks to everyone else who looked and commented.

While I saw lots of cars with Canadian flags on their antennae, quite
a few houses festooned with flags, several people with "Canada" and
"maple leaf" hats and t-shirts, no one came close to this guy (both
literally and figuratively).  It was fun.

cheers,
frank

of course! 

I hope to have a treat for you all soon, as I have been forced to accept an
invitation to a fancy-dress party. I'm not going to tell you what I'm going
as, but they have lovely waxy dark plumage.
