Canada: Welcome to Caledonia, where flying the national flag is officially forbidden
But native flags are fine, of course:
"A Caledonia family - Dave Brown, Dana Chatwell and their teenage son Dax - are suing the Ontario government and the OPP for a total of $7-million for effectively abandoning them to the lawlessness surrounding a native occupation of a former development site called Douglas Creek Estates. The family's home is bordered on two sides by the site, part of a simmering Six Nations land claim.
The world of Mr. Brown and Ms. Chatwell, and to a lesser degree that of other Caledonia residents whose homes were also close to the site, was Kafkaesque, a bewildering place where black was white, right was wrong, up was down.
One night, when he asked that the OPP station a car near his house, he implored the dispatcher, "Just don't ignore my calls okay? It's unsafe here, if you ask me. They're shining spotlights all over, all around the perimeter." Police notes duly stated that "Occupiers are in multiple vehicles, shining lights everywhere."
As Christmas of 2006 approached, with Mohawk Warrior flags all over the DCE and on Mr. Brown's street, Caledonia residents had had enough, and decided they would carry or hang a Canadian flag. Mr. Brown decided to fly one in his front yard.
"The Canadian flag was not allowed to be flown," he said. "I'm a very, very proud Canadian. I'm proud of my country. This was my opportunity and my right to believe we still live in this country. "The OPP was not concerned with the Mohawk flags all around my property and on all the telephone poles. They were agitating me.
Mr. Brown's flag was stolen a few days later, and, he told the lawyer, he stood with his uncle, three police cruisers in his driveway, as the "OPP let them [the natives] stand there with my Canadian flag."

Eskimos and red Indians are near-sacred in politically correct Canada. They have in practice FAR more rights than anyone else.

Anon 2:37 - So little you understand but it's obvious you've fallen for the latest revisionist histories.

"And rightfully so. Give the entire country back to those who belong there and send the whiners back to france!"
---They already have reservations, they should be happy. If they lived in Mexico they would be persecuted, ridiculed, and possibly shot. Google "Chiapas" if you don't believe me.
OPP stands for Ontario Provincial Police. Had to check that out.
Welcome to what's coming to America. Protected groups are on the fast track...all but white males at least.
One could reasonably argue that the act of ripping down the Canadian flag was a way of saying "the Canadian government does not rule over this land!" I wonder if the Canadian government would have meekly taken such a challenge to its authority over its territory, had they bothered to look at things that way. Perhaps Mr. Brown should claim that as Canada has abandoned its authority over where he lives, he no longer owes them any taxes...
