Trudeau Creates Another Wedge Issue Over Flags Being Lowered: The Longer They Are st Half Mast, The Less the Mewning Resonates

 "...We lower the flag for solemn and important reasons. The discovery of unmarked graves is one such appropriate occasion, and an example of why the flag lowering protocols allow some discretion. But precisely because there is an important recognition conferred by the lowering of the flags is why we should be careful with how and when we use it. Half-masting notices issued since May 30 have added that “as the flags are currently half-masted, no action is required.” Some may argue this is a trivial concern, but if the flags being lowered was a symbol appropriate for a tragic discovery it’s because the lowering of the flags has meaning. The indefinite lowering we seem destined for drains the potency of this symbol...."
