## Resource

Five years ago, a London father-son duo sparked a global craze by crafting hockey stick flags—each one a handmade tribute to Canada, built to fund Jakob’s future. What began as a heartfelt project in Jason’s garage exploded into a viral sensation, drawing donations from across the globe and shipping hundreds of flags to Canada, Sweden, and beyond. Now, as vintage wooden sticks grow rarer, they’ve scaled back production to around 200 flags a year, each painstakingly assembled by hand. Yet for Jason, the real victory isn’t in the sales or the fame—it’s in the time spent bonding with his son, turning every flag into a shared memory and a future-proof legacy.
