Rainbow colours desecrate flag

I was shocked to see our prime minister carrying a desecrated flag of Canada as he led the pride parade in Toronto this weekend. It is beyond belief that Justin Trudeau would wave the Maple Leaf adorned with a rainbow symbol on each side as he marched. Has he no pride in the flag of his country? Surely, the Conservatives should raise a protest on behalf of all the citizens who still believe in Canada and what we stand for. Is it not an offence to desecrate the flag?
