Yesterday while at work getting a centuries-old house and boat house ready for restoration I came across a fairly old and very beat up Canadian flag among a bunch of other old things that were going to be tossed into the dumpster.
Just tossing the flag into the trash with old fish nets and fifty gallon drums didn't really seem to sit well with me, so I set it aside, not knowing how to dispose of it in a slightly more respectful way.
I thought somebody on here would know if there is a proper or commonly accepted respectful way to get rid of old and tattered flags... I had heard that burning them was one way, but I had always thought people used that to show hatred rather than respect. Thoughts?
