The following evidence of Nazi Flags at the protest, whether copies of the original, or variations (including improvised versions from defaced canadian flags). The presence of these flags also contradict the convoyists' claimed opposition to authoritarianism, and also resulted in Bill C-229 (to ban symbols of hate) being presented to parliament.
