I came to work and discovered a colleague removing the flag of Canada from the wall where we are keeping all of our flags and hoisting the flag of Quebec in its place.

“Wow, I thought I’d never see the day,” I exclaimed. “Has something happened I’m not aware of?”

“I guess you haven’t been to Quebec in a while if you have to ask!” the colleague responded.

I’m not sure what’s been going on but I’m glad this happened after my sister left because she’d freak. She’d think this was done to spite her personally. Here is our new flag:

The flag of Canada has been relegated to the closet.

    Why? What’s happening in Quebec? Parti Quebecois is gone and took the divisiveness with it? Let’s reignite the fire?

      And that’s precisely why we need the flag! We need to keep the resistance to Canadian imperialism going.

      The colleague bought the flag with her own money. This is true dedication! I’m considering substituting the flag of Spain with the flag of the Spanish Republic. My only colleague from Spain will be totally into it.

          We teach the history and culture of Quebec here. We are not totally uncivilized!
