Canadians' patriotism spikes, with 85% feeling proud, as they reclaim the flag amid national challenges.

Canadians are experiencing a surge in national pride and patriotism, with 85% feeling proud to be Canadian, according to a Leger poll. This renewed sense of identity is in response to threats from former U.S. President Donald Trump and the "Freedom Convoy" protests. The Canadian flag, designed by George F. G. Stanley, is being reclaimed as a symbol of tolerance, inclusion, and unity, especially as it celebrates its 60th anniversary on Flag Day. Former prime ministers have encouraged citizens to fly the flag with pride.
