About the Logo

Many photos of geese were looked at in designing the logo. The picture of a goose sitting down was chosen for a very specific reason. The picture was then used to create a sketch of the bird, which was scanned into the computer. A mirror image was also created. Once they were put together the two images created a heart between the 2 geese; this was done intentionally to represent the love of geese — and is the reason the photo of the sitting goose was chosen. :)

The colour red was chosen for the background to make the heart red in colour, and because the website is a .ca (Canadian) website - red is a “Canadian colour”. The red also represents bloodshed — which we are trying to stop! We thought this colour would be the most appropriate.

The geese were then placed on a rounded-cornered rectangle to make the logo look like a button a protestor might wear. Since we are trying to save geese – which usually involves protests — we thought this was also appropriate. :)

We intend to sell buttons like this with the website address below the geese at some point in the future — watch for them to become available on our “support us” page.
