That is where the White Flags should be seen most prominently. Too many of us feel isolated in our grief, loss and anger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The White Flags demonstrate that we are not alone, it&#8217;s a shared burden and requires a province-wide response. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we relocate the memorial, we are carrying it forward symbolically with white flags placed in windows and on clothing. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/campaign\/white-flag-campaign\/\" data-type=\"campaign\" data-id=\"705\">See the White Flag Campaign for details<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":713,"template":"","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":""},"acf":[],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02.jpg",712,712,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-300x300.jpg",300,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02.jpg",712,712,false],"large":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02.jpg",712,712,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02.jpg",712,712,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02.jpg",712,712,false],"ultp_layout_landscape_large":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02.jpg",712,712,false],"ultp_layout_landscape":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-712x570.jpg",712,570,true],"ultp_layout_portrait":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-600x712.jpg",600,712,true],"ultp_layout_square":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-600x600.jpg",600,600,true],"gb-block-post-grid-landscape":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-600x400.jpg",600,400,true],"gb-block-post-grid-square":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-600x600.jpg",600,600,true],"aac-sponsor-logo":["https:\/\/www.actagainstcovid.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/white-flag-memorial-02-120x120.jpg",120,120,true]},"post_excerpt_stackable":"<p>On October 23rd, Concerned Citizens For Covid Action placed a Memorial of 800 White Flags on the legislative grounds. 800 blank white flags!
