It was a proud moment for thousands of Windsorites when the Great Canadian Flag Committee raised their 30’ x 60’ Canadian Flag at the foot of Ouellette Avenue in Dieppe Park. The flag raising ceremony was part of Windsor’s 125th birthday celebration.

The flag stands 150 feet above ground, in honour of Canada’s 150 years as a nation. The flag has quickly become an iconic piece of our already incredible waterfront. This project was made possible by the Government of Canada’s Canada 150 fund, as well as through the dedicated fundraising by the Great Canadian Flag Project Team and the City of Windsor.
