An official Palestinian flag-raising ceremony planned at Regina city hall for Friday is not going ahead, according to the city. A Thursday afternoon email from the City of Regina said, At the direction of Mayor Sandra Masters, the flag raising and ceremony for Palestine that had been planned for tomorrow, Friday November 15, will not proceed. Requests must be reviewed by the office of the city clerk and meet the criteria set out in its guidelines. Regina city council heard from several delegations this summer after Israel's flag was flown at city hall April 13-14, 2024, to mark its national day of independence. Ultimately, the decision was referred back to the city clerk for recommendations on how to proceed.
