As per the Rules for Half-masting the National Flag of Canada (Section 11), the National Flag of Canada will be flown at half-mast on the Peace Tower in Ottawa, from sunrise to sunset on April 9, 2026, to mark the national day of remembrance of the Battle of Vimy Ridge, and the Canadian flag at the legislature in Victoria will also be flown at half-mast.
Where a Canadian flag and a British Columbia flag fly near to one other, both flags should be lowered to half-mast. The direction of the federal and provincial governments on half-masting protocols is provided in case school districts wish to follow a similar approach.
