Ontario's Greater Prairie Chicken. Extirpated from Ontario and most of its natural range, very sad indeed. I know there are breeding programs and some natural populations left in the country out west. Iv watched some pretty neat documentaries on these birds, they have a very elaborate breeding ritual.

A couple of my favourites:
Ocellated turkey from Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico (none in Canada)
And Peacock Pheasants, there are 8 kinds, the most common domesticated is the Grey, including lots in Ontario.
