When is National Flag of Canada Day?
Most Canadians don’t know; most people don’t talk about it, they don’t think about it and they don’t fly the flag.
Flag Day is Feb. 15 and is overshadowed by Valentine’s Day.
It’s cold and snowy and people don’t want to be outside on a ladder putting up a flag.
Until 1965 Canada didn’t have its own flag. In 1964 Lester Pearson, the prime minister and winner of the 1957 Nobel Peace prize, decided to introduce a new flag as a means of promoting national unity and pride. He wanted it to be “distinctive and unmistakably Canadian”.
