An Act to proclaim

Ontario Flag Day

Preamble

Ontario

has a rich history and diverse heritage.

From

the early Aboriginal peoples who first called this land home, to Anglophone and

Francophone settlers like Henry Hudson and Samuel de Champlain, to the millions

of immigrants who continue to arrive on our shores from around the world,

Ontario is one of the most diverse places in the world.

Ontario

has been built through the hard work of generations of people, through their

commitment to values such as mutual respect and acceptance and their enduring

belief in and support for freedom, democracy and human rights.

Ontarians

from across our province have made and continue to make great contributions to

the economic, social, political and cultural life of our province, our country

and the world.

First

recognized on May 21st, 1965, the Ontario flag symbolizes each of these

contributions as well as our rich history, diverse heritage, distinct values

and shared successes. The Ontario flag represents all those who call Ontario

home.

Paying

tribute to the Ontario flag allows us to celebrate all Ontario citizens and

their countless contributions while honouring our history, heritage, values and

successes.

Her Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Legislative Assembly of

the Province of Ontario, enacts as follows:
