#69 - Flag Day
February 15, 1965
That was the day, 60 years ago that the newly-christened Canadian Flag, “The Maple Leaf” was flown for the first time on Parliament Hill, in Ottawa Ontario.
Join me as I look into the history of one of the most recognizable flags in the world.
Check out the ceremony that took place on that day here:

I'd like to know how you're listening to me. Are you using Podbean's app? Do you listen from my site (whorpole.ca)? Or do you use one of the many podcast platforms that you can listen to this podcast on. I encourage you to contact me at [email protected] – and let me know - I'll mention you on the show (unless you don't want me to) – and you'll forever be able to say, “I got James to say my name, way back before he was a super celebrity!”
If YOU want to be a part of MY podcast,
send me a recording of you saying,
“This podcast is produced by the Fireside Chat Club of Canada”.
Send it via Facebook Messenger, or by email to: [email protected]
If you would like to listen, you can find the link to the podcast in my profile. Just click on the picture of the little campfire, and you should find it there.
