The true owner of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant is revealed in season 14’s “CE D’oh.” Homer tries to climb the ranks within the company, at which point he learns that the actual owner of the facility is a bird named Canary M. Burns. The reasoning behind such a decision is that if anyone ever got wind of the facility’s nefarious activities, the bird would be the one who would go to jail. Such a practice is perfectly legal; Standard Oil once belonged to a half-eaten breakfast.
Of course, it is unclear what the hierarchy of the power plant looks like these days. After all, Homer let go of the canary, putting Burns back in the lead. But knowing him, he probably tricked another animal or inanimate object into taking the position. Everyone seems to love the inanimate rod, so maybe she got a promotion.
Years after the episode came out, fans kept finding hidden details of the episode that make it all the more enjoyable to watch again. Redditor u/btcftw1 pointed out, “Did anyone else notice they went with a canary because it looks like Burns’ head? [It’s] yellow, they both have a beak…it has the same initials too.” We wonder what this canary is up to these days. Maybe he oversees the Shelbyville Nuclear Power Plant…
