Description

The Canadian Code Quebec (Q) Flag is part of the International Maritime Signal Flags used in Canada.
It features a solid yellow design, easily visible at sea.
When flown alone, it signals “My vessel is healthy and I request free pratique” (clearance to enter port).
The flag is essential for communicating a vessel’s health status to port authorities.
It follows the International Code of Signals, recognized worldwide by mariners.
Canadian vessels display it when arriving at ports to comply with health and safety regulations.
Proper use ensures smooth port entry and prevents the spread of disease.
Today, the Canadian Code Quebec (Q) Flag remains a vital symbol of maritime safety and port communication
