The Liberals are proposing a motion that would have this flag fly at half mast when a soldier dies.  Yet never in history has this one flag been lowered for an individual soldier.  That was something done everywhere else in the nation.  But the Peace Tower is different.  It is representative of the nation and has set dates which it is lowered.<\/p>\n<p>Well when i went to vote at the CTV poll on this subject today I noticed that the question does NOT mention it is for the PEACE TOWER and simply states &#8220;Should the flag be lowered every time a Canadian soldier is killed?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As the results will be tied to the Peace Tower, this question is obviously going to misrepresent the nation&#8217;s opinion because we ALL know the flags should be lowered for soldiers.  Just NOT on the Peace Tower.<\/p>\n<p>I urge you all to vote with me NO on this issue.
