So where they are getting all the feathers from and what happens to the birds whose feathers has been taken? Can somebody please tell me that?

Northern shovellers and Canadian Geese
The Northern Shoveler, sometimes known simply as the Shoveler, is a common and widespread duck. It breeds in northern areas of Europe and Asia and across most of North America, wintering in Southern Europe, Africa, the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia and northern South America. In North America, it breeds along the southern edge of Hudson Bay and west of this body of water, and as far south as the Great Lakes.

Canadian shield
The Canadian Shield, also called the Laurentian Plateau, or Bouclier Canadien (French), is a large area of exposed Precambrian igneous and high-grade metamorphic rocks that forms the ancient geological core of the North American continent, covered by a thin layer of soil. It is an area mostly composed of igneous rock which relates to its long volcanic history. It has a deep, common, joined bedrock region in Eastern and central Canada and stretches North from the Great Lakes to the Arctic Ocean,
covering over half of Canada; it also extends South into the Northern
reaches of the United States. Human population is sparse, and industrial
development is minimal, while mining is very prevalent.
