Boston honors bet with Montreal ... sort of

Does this count?

The City of Boston and its mayor, Marty Walsh, have lived up to their bet with Montreal and its mayor, Denis Coderre, after the Bruins lost to the Canadiens in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
There is a Habs flag flying in front of Boston City Hall.
Just a slight problem with that, though. (And no, it’s not that the mayor’s intern took the picture sideways.)
That might be the smallest flag in the history of flags.
Update: Apparently Coderre mailed that flag to Walsh, so this isn’t Boston being funny and flying a baby flag. Montreal apparently needs to get bigger flags.
