Frances and I proudly fly the Canadian flag on our farm in Midgell. It's a symbol of unity, linking folks from coast to coast to coast. Today, on Flag Day, let's all take a moment to reflect on and celebrate everything it means to be Canadian – including our great flag.
Our flag - a powerful reminder of Canada’s shared values, our tough resilience and our unique national identity. Proud to fly it internationally and beyond. (first unfurled 60 years ago today)
Today marks the 60th Anniversary of the Canadian National Flag, first adopted on February 15th, 1965. Did you know that Canada is the only country to have a maple leaf on their flag? On this special day we unite over this symbol that is said to reflect the values of democracy, inclusion, and equity that Canadians take pride in.
Today marks the 60th anniversary of the 1st time the 🇨🇦 flag was raised on Parliament Hill.
From the largest flag in the collection to one of the smallest, it’s time to celebrate the #CanadianFlag. How do you honour the maple leaf?

@TheElksHerd … and the Cheer team making the trip down to Calgary was huge. A tradition that had been missing the last few years. So glad to see them back.
The Canadian Olympic swimming team has arrived on Juno Beach.
This is such a meaningful moment.
A place of immense sacrifice for the freedom we enjoy today. None of it lost of us here today.
