Nazi Flags were originally used as the national flag of Germany from 1935 until 1945, when Germany was attempting to annex a large nubmer of countries and perform state-sponsored genocide. Since that time, it is in common use by neo-Nazi supporters outside of Germany.

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.
