Canada goose feathers are really good due to the oil content in the feathers.

Is there any reason that they have to be wild feathers?
I used feathers that were moulted from a turkey my Grandparents had. Of course there was only enough feathers for one arrow, I wouldn't see why you couldn't ask a farmer that raises turkeys for the feather that get moulted.
