Nobody says Canada Geese unless you're on the internet. It's pretty much Canadian Geese.

I agree. I only have ever had one person correct me on this, who was, incidentally, Canadian. It's rather infuriating because the Latin name is literally 'from Canada'...which we already have a term for(Canadian). If anything, it feels like Canada Goose is a bad translation that people stick to.
American here, can confirm.
