Just a funny one...but it begs the question: how is it that the Canadian flag will stand to attention in front of the former Provincial Building (Kemball Centre) and the BC flag is well, somewhat limp? Might it be harmonization of the GST and PST into the HST (as The Province newspaper headlined it a few days ago, the 'Hated Sales Tax')? Get on it, people, and flood government people with your opposition. This is the kind of stuff which potentially kills small business... which makes up most of Kaslo and the Kootenays.
Of course, the answer to the puzzler is, Mike Pearson's maple leaf is hung up in a tree, but I get a chuckle out of it every time I see it. Hope you will too, when you're next on the sidewalk. Any tree climbers around (as opposed to huggers) or flag-pole sitters looking for a volunteer project?
Seriously, get on the HST issue, with emails or snail mails, and let the government know this entire concept is a pile.
On the HST issue, I have one quote for you.

Keep up the good work. ;)
