Canadian flag collection, Flag museum in Argyle, Manitoba, Canada.
The Canadian Flag Collection in Argyle is a museum housing over 1,400 flags in permanent care. The collection is organized by categories such as Historic Canada, Corporate Canada, Regional Canada, Sports Organizations, and Special Events.

The flags are organized by theme throughout the museum, making it straightforward to explore specific categories. Visitors can move through the exhibits at a relaxed pace and spend as much time as they wish examining the displays.
Flags from seventeen Canadian embassies around the world were added to the collection after flying at their locations for six months. These flags connect places across the globe to this small local collection.
