INSIDE CANADA'S MOST FAMOUS CLOCK TOWER
There is one man in charge of changing the flag on a daily basis. No matter what the weather, he climbs to the top of the Peace Tower on Parliament Hill to change the Canadian Flag.
After that, he hands over the flag to the Ministers Office who will then mail it to a Canadian at the top of the waiting list. If you want to add your name to the waiting list to get a Canada Flag for yourself, you can do so here:

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada - Parliament Hill - Peace Tower Memorial Chamber HD (2015)
Memorial Chamber
The Peace Tower was designed by architect John A. Pearson not only to stand as an architectural feature and landmark, but also to function as a memorial to Canadians who had given their lives during the Great War. It thus houses the Memorial Chamber, a vaulted 7.3 m by 7.3 m (24 ft by 24 ft) room directly above the porte-cochere,[2] with stained glass windows and various other features illustrating Canada's war record, such as the brass plates made from spent shell casings found on battlefields that were inlaid into the floor, and bore the name of each of Canada's major conflicts during the First World War. The stone walls were originally to have been inscribed with the names of all Canada's servicemen and women who had died during the First World War; but, without enough space for all 66,000 names, it was later decided to place Books of Remembrance there instead;[3] these books list all Canadian soldiers, airmen, and seamen who died in service of the Crown—whether that of Britain (before 1931) or that of Canada (after 1931)—or allied countries in foreign wars, including the Nile Expedition and Boer War, the First World War, the Second World War, and the Korean War. The displays were later modified to represent a broader overview of Canadian armed conflict, both foreign and domestic, since Confederation in 1867.
