My ex from Norway mentioned how unusual it was that so many places and people here fly our flag (USA), so I was curious to hear what it’s like for others here on the fediverse.

    Im from Newfoundland, generally the type of people here who fly the national flag are also flying flags from other provinces and nations along side it.

    Seems to be the custom to fly the flag of a nation that a relative or friend lives in. Sometimes you see flags for causes they support as well, like the ‘Every Child Matters’ flags, pride flags, and the Ukrainian flag has been pretty popular lately.

    Its pretty rare to see just the Canada flag or just the provincial/republic flag on its own outside of government property.
