Following the flight around the Moon, Canada shall be the second country in the world to have its flag planted on the Moon directly by a human.
Yes, we beat the Soviets (and even their successors, Putin's Russia) on this one.
Not just that, but a Canadian astronaut would drop a maple leaf on the Moon to disprove any Moon landing conspiracies, just like when David Scott dropped a falcon feather (and a hammer) on the Moon during the Apollo 15 mission.

Both the feather and the hammer landed simultaneously
We could do like we do on Hans Island but I think a glass bottle of Canadian Club would probably freeze and break.
