Flags Of The Lieutenant Governors Of Canada




Each flag consists of the shield of the province circled with ten gold maple leaves (representing the ten provinces) surmounted by a Royal Crown on a field of blue. Quebec and Nova Scotia have not adopted the new design. The personal standard is flown at the office or home of the Lieutenant Governor and from flagpoles of buildings where official duties are carried out to indicate presence of the Lieutenant Governor. It is also attached to the front fender of the car that the Lieutenant Governor is riding in. The standard is never flown on a church or inside a church. It is never lowered to half-mast but on the death of the Lieutenant Governor the standard is taken down until a successor is sworn in.
