Flag Patches: Quebec Flag

flag patches: Jonathan Vance recently approved the flag patches in part to show solidarity with "a region facing existential threats," but that they should not be construed as support for an independent Iraqi Kurdistan, according to Metro News. That may be wishful thinking, say experts, one of whom compared it to a foreign military force wearing the Quebec flag in Canada. National Defence says Gen. The Kurds' distinctive red, white and green flag with a sun emblem has been on the Canadian soldiers' uniforms since they arrived in northern Iraq to help the Kurdish peshmerga fight ISIL in 2014. At the time, Canada had several dozen special forces operatives in the region, though the Trudeau government is expanding the contingent to 200. The practice wasn't publicly known until Vance led a group of Canadian journalists on a tour of the mission in April. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
