Canada Day 2011

By Linda Horn

Many Canadians, it seems, only display their Canada flag on Canada Day. But there are those who fly the flag all-year round. This collection of photos showcases some of those proud Canadians from around the Quinte area.

They include people like Lance Usher who served in the military for 24 years. Rachel Rumbolt’s brother completed two Afghanistan tours. Others such as Brian Markis just like the way the flag looks. .

Nancy Reid noticed on a trip to the United States how patriotic they were and most of the homes flew the American flag. She thought it looked nice.

“We should fly the flag all-year round because we are Canadian,” said Reid.
