Canary M. Burns
Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
Canary M. Burns is the legal owner of Springfield Nuclear Power Plant and appeared in "C.E. D'oh". In the episode, Homer tries to become a better employee, but is dismissed by Mr. Burns. Homer is angered and overhears Burns mention that that the legal plant owner is Canary M. Burns because this protects Mr. Burns from responsibility for any wrongdoing by the power plant. Homer, with Bart’s help, devises a plan to overthrow Burns by releasing the bird from the plant to the Canary Islands. After the bird is released, he tells Mr. Burns that inspectors are here to check the condition of the plant. Out of panic, Mr. Burns, who is unable to find his canary, names Homer the new owner.
