The City of Regina acknowledges that our current Flag Protocol Procedure needs updating so that it is focused on and supports municipal issues, and doesn’t weigh into global politics,” Nichol said in a statement to the Western Standard.

“Administration is recommending a number of changes to the Flag Protocol Procedure, including that only the flags of Canada, Saskatchewan, Union Jack, City of Regina, Treaty 4, and Metis Nation may be flown in the courtyard of City Hall and in the Council chamber.”
