Saturday is National Flag of Canada Day.

At the stroke of noon on February 15, 1965, Canada’s red and white maple leaf flag was raised for the very first time on Parliament Hill. On the same day in 1996, National Flag of Canada Day was declared.

Our national flag is a symbol that unites Canadians and reflects the common values we take pride in — equality, freedom and inclusion.

Flags are changed daily at the Parliament buildings and the Peace Tower in Ottawa. The flags that are taken down are offered to Canadians across the country. If you would like a free flag, you can submit your name here. The waiting period for both Peace Tower and other Parliament Hill flags exceeds 100 years.
