National Flag of Canada Day

The Canadian flag was raised on Parliament Hill for the first time 60 years ago today. All of Canada's living former prime ministers asked "...Canadians to fly the red maple leaf this weekend in a huge display of national pride as the country stares down U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to its economy and sovereignty."  (from the CBC website)
We saw quite a few flags like this on houses when we walked around Renata's neighbourhood today. I'm both a proud Scot and a proud Canadian citizen.
Prime Minister Trudeau issued an excellent statement today about our flag. Here's a link if you're interested in having a look.
