Centennial Flame
Ottawa, Canada
The Centennial Flame (French: Flamme du centenaire) is a monument on Parliament Hill commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Canadian Confederation. First lit in January 1967, the Flame worked with natural gas and, as of 2021, uses biogas. This ensures the fountain does not freeze in winter. Mone
y thrown into it is a donation for people with disabilities, some of whom have received over $5,000.
