À l'exception du Québec, la communauté franco-ontarienne est la deuxième communauté (après l'Acadie) à se voir accorder un drapeau officiel. Le drapeau comporte deux couleurs : le vert pour représenter l'été et le blanc pour représenter l'hiver. Il présente également une fleur de lys, symbole de la Francophonie, et une fleur de trillium, symbole de l'Ontario. Le drapeau a été hissé pour la première fois le 25 septembre 1975 à l'Université de Sudbury, et la communauté franco-ontarienne a célébré son anniversaire depuis ce temps. Cependant, bien que le drapeau soit utilisé depuis 1975, il n'est devenu le symbole officiel de la communauté franco-ontarienne que le 21 juin 2001. Le 25 septembre est officiellement devenu le Jour franco-ontarien en 2010.
ALT Today is Franco-Ontarian Day!
Not including Québec, the Franco-Ontarian community is the second community (after Acadia) to be granted an official flag. The flag has two colours: green to represent summer and white to represent winter. It also features a fleur-de-lys, the symbol of La Francophonie, and a trillium flower, the symbol of Ontario.
The flag was raised for the first time on September 25, 1975 at the University of Sudbury, and the Franco-Ontarian community has celebrated its anniversary ever since. However, even though the flag has been in use since 1975, it only became the official symbol of the Franco-Ontarian community on June 21, 2001. September 25 officially became Franco-Ontarian Day in 2010.
