One of the "concessions" which the advocates of the new (Maple Leaf) national
flag of Canada granted to those in favour of the erstwhile Canadian Red Ensign
was the formal recognition of the Union Jack as a flag of Canada. This was done via a resolution of the
federal Canadian Parliament on 18 December 1964 wherein "Parliament approves the
continued us of the Union flag as a symbol of Canada's membership in the
Commonwealth of Nations, as well as our continued allegiance to the Crown".
The practical result of this resolution is that the Union Jack is to be flown alongside the
Canadian national flag at all federal government buildings, airports, and
military bases on special occasions, "such as the Queen's Birthday, and on the
anniversary of the passing of the Statute of Westminster by the Imperial
Parliament", on 11 December 1931.
