Flag Protocol
A. Do not fly any other flag
higher than the National Flag.
B. When placed on a wall, make sure that the National flag is hung as
if the mast were on the right side of the flag.
C. No flag, banner or pennant should be flown or displayed above the Canadian
flag when on the same flag pole.
D. When three flags are flown together, the Canadian Flag should occupy
the central position, with the next ranking flag to the left and third
ranking flag to the right, as seen by spectators in front of the flags.
E. When two flags or more than three nation's flags are flown, use separate
staffs of the same height.
F. In processions, carry the National Flag on the marching right.
G. When several other flags are carried abreast, carry the National Flag
in front of the centre of the line.
H. When crossed with another flag, the National Flag is on the flag's
right with the staff over that of the other flag.
I. A church flag is often used with the National Flag in the Chancel of
a church. In such cases, the National Flag should be on the left and the
Church Flag on the right as you face the chancel.
J. When flying the National Flag at half-mast, first raise it to the masthead,
then slowly bring it down at least the flag's width from the masthead,
but not more than half way.
Flag Care
1. Where possible, a flag should
be taken down every night.
2. Never store a wet or damp flag; spread it out until dry.
3. If soiled, a flag may be safely hand washed using any domestic soap
or detergent which does not contain bleach.
4. If lightly frayed or torn, a flag should be repaired at once. It could
save the cost of a new flag.
5. When your flag is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting
emblem for display, it should be destroyed in a dignified manner.
