DEBATE: Beavers vs Bears

The debate is on! Senator Nicole C. Eaton is proposing that our beloved beaver be replaced by the polar bear as the official emblem of Canada. You can guess which side we're on... To bolster support for our favourite furry symbol, here are our top five reasons why beavers are better than polar bears:

1. They've paid their dues! The trade of beaver pelts played a huge part in the settlement and history of Canada.

2. Beavers are the strong silent type. They're stoic, smart and will stand up for themselves. Did you see those teeth?

3. Unlike some animals that are known to hibernate, beavers are hardworking all year long.

4. Beavers are community builders and help forestation. They were eco-friendly before it was trendy!
5. When it comes to tail-shaped pastries, it's a no-brainer! Bigger is better!

Rest assured, we at BeaverTails are sharpening our teeth on a project that will show the noble beaver just how much we care…and demonstrate its majesty to all who behold it. Stay tuned!
