We travel with our Macaw in our van. There has never been any problems.
Just be sure the cage is strapped well down. Birds are fine on a correctly sized perch, we use a wood one and a rope perch to give our bird the choice.
The main issue is that you keep the cage in a position where the bird cannot get over heated, especially if left unattended in the van.
i would suspend the cage from the ceiling (without too much room to swing ) that way the canary can cope with the driving part and look out too prob would love it and sing its little hart out !!
Just to update the topic. The canary loved it and was totally unphased by the experience. In fact the faster and more wind noise there was the more he sang. He loved Dire Straights and Eddie Calvert by the way.
He was well seat belted in on the passenger seat at the back and was quite happy to fly around his big cage as we travelled.
We were happy that we would not get "gassed" as well. He enjoyed the flight around the van at night. In milage terms he has done the trip back home to Tenerife already. He certainly is not bored.
