Tourtiere
Yes. I am part of a French Canadian family that celebrated Christmas with toutiere pies. The modern version is much like a meat pie with some potatos. However, tourtiere comes from word tourte, a small bird, now exatinguished, that was hunted so as ro have the "meat" for the tourtiere pies.
