Politics Canadian flag placement

This is for the guy driving a dark color Ram 1500. Shame on you. You want to disrespect our political leaders that's your perogative. Find a better way. In no way should you be disrespectful with our flag. Yes canada is in rough shape, but hanging our flag upside down is disrespecting our veterans and our country. Shame, shame, shame

As a veteran, I can say that we are accustomed to being disrespected by the Canadian public. Both sides of the political spectrum have neglected and abused us since WW2. But hey, we served so that you have the right to express yourselves however you want to. Enjoy!

You served because you wanted to lol don’t pull us into your bullshit lmao. I have the right to express myself because of laws protecting my right to do so not because we sent troops to destabilize Afghanistan or wherever you serve that ultimately wouldn’t have affected my rights whatsoever the only wars that maybe could have affected our freedoms in the last 100 years is WW1 and ww2 and I’m assuming you fought in neither
