Inspired by other posts here is a picture of mine in a gentle breeze on this cold February morning.
I replace it twice a year and fly it proudly as well a couple of other neighbours who do the same.

I would rather fly the provincial flag over the Canadian Flag
We fly one, always proudly most of the year at the hunt camp, not up right now as we had a pole issue.

I fly one out front. Needs to be replaced 2 or 3 times a year. Half mast on Remembrance Day.

Never thought about it, but you just gave me a great idea. I'll see that we put one up at Hunt Camp this year. Thanks.Quote:

I've always flown the Canadian flag on every property I've ever lived at. Always thought if more people did, it would create a common bond between everyone. I put up a new flag every spring, replace when needed, and take it down in the fall, since the NW winds we get in winter make short work of even a new flag. I would rather see no flag than shredded remnants hanging on a pole, which I find disrespectful. Stores usually have them on sale for May 24 and July 1, so I buy a couple to keep as spares.
We have a Canadian flag in our front yard just inside the property line from the road. I always meant to put one up and my better half gave me the pole for Christmas about 17 years ago. Been there ever since. I have to admit I never think to lower to half mast on Remembrance Day.
Always had a flag up at previous resideces but took it down here about 5 years ago. My yard looks like a dump as it is, don't need one more thing to look after. I would be embarrassed flying a tattered up thing. I must also admit as of times of late its hard to admit to being Canadian.

Never be embarrassed of your country, but I can see why some might be of their leaders.Quote:
