Did Canadian soldiers in ww1 or ww2 receive Canadian flags when they served or left the military?

Canadian soldiers did not typically receive flags upon enlistment or discharge during World War I or World War II. However, flags were often used in ceremonies or parades to honor soldiers. In later years, particularly around the time of the 150th anniversary of Canadian Confederation in 2017, the Canadian government began recognizing the contributions of veterans with commemorative flags, but this practice was not standard during the world wars.
