No, the flag just means the building is probably in Canada

I'm an ironworker. It's our tradition. A flag doesn't mean anything, and its as often an Ironworkers flag as it a Canadian flag. We put an evergreen on top of a completed steel structure to show no one was hurt. This is a concrete structure, and residential at that. Ironworkers didn't put the building up, or the flag for that matter, so showing a google search about our tradition isn't going to prove anything.

It's an outstanding contribution to architecture in Canada, so the flag is very much a recognition of the enrichment of our shared cultural heritage.

Indeed. We chose the design, we built it, and we will use it and it will represent a Canadian city. So it does become a part of our heritage, just like the many 19th century buildings designed by British and American architects. Too bad it's not a Canadian design, but these are still significant buildings for us.

The architects from China are just the design architects. Burka Architects made it work.

Citizens, we live in a global village now, and we should be celebrating the coming together of the great Chinese people and we of North Gotham. As long as Robin and I can climb it, what does it matter where one would bat-geo-locate the brains who designed this or made it stand up? Supervillains know no boundaries; neither should "superstructures".
