National Flag of Canada Day
The following information is taken from the federal Canadian Heritage website:

February 15 - National Flag of Canada DayFebruary 15 was declared National Flag of Canada Day in 1996. It marks the day in 1965 when our red and white maple leaf flag was first raised over Parliament Hill in Ottawa, and indeed, hundreds of communities across Canada. Red and white were designated as Canada’s official colours in 1921 by His Majesty King George V. This is a perfect opportunity to celebrate our flag and what it stands for: a Dominion that is the envy of the world.  To learn more about the history of the National Flag of Canada please click here to visit the Canadian Heritage website and watch a special video of the National Flag of Canada Day celebration.
