Just out of interest, did you fly that US flag by itself?
I ask because I remember some stories about Americans in Florida getting all bent out of shape because some Canadian snowbirds down there were flying their Canadian flags by themselves. Do they represent your views?
Me, I couldn't care less. US flags are commonly seen in Canada. Many businesses fly them along with the Canadian and provincial flags, and sometimes those of the business also, as a way of welcoming and showing our friendship for Americans. My office building, for example, has the flags of Canada, the US, and Westbury (the property management company that owns the building) flying in front of it. Of course, I work for a US company and regularly work with Americans.
I flew the U.S. flag along with my Canadian flag.
The summer that Canada decided to be "tolerant" and made it clear they were allowing "gay" marriage, I removed my Canadian flag. Sometimes I will put it back up, depending on how annoyed I am at the time with the liberal government.
Liberalism is tolerance...
