interestingly, neither OED nor OneLook record any inflections for canard(s) [Fr.; lit. ‘duck’], at all.
(I might have expected canardine as well; both of these can be found [rarely] in French.)
-joe (full of canards, then?) friday
edit: but perhaps the -s form in French is just the plural of canardou?
