Hockey Sticks Instead of Flagpoles? Doesn't Get More Canadian Than That

Have you ever seen a flag held up by an ice hockey stick instead of a flagpole? If you haven't, you probably just haven't traveled to Canada. The person who snapped this photo didn't expect this to be one of their trip's highlights when they hopped on a plane to visit the northern country. But seeing Canadians use hockey sticks as flagpoles is too funny not to snap a photo.

We just have a few questions: Did they use those hockey sticks because they didn't have a flagpole? Or is this just the Canadian way? Canadians sure do love their hockey!
