My Canadian Flag Proposal


The national colors of Canada were declared by King George V in 1921 to be red and white. Red is symbolic of England and white of France. The 10 white and red stripes represent our 10 countries and the equality between them.

The Inukshuk represents the Aboriginal and First Nations peoples. Canada is a multicultural Country not only of french and English, but also the First Nations. I believe it is only fair considering that the First Nations lived here long before us, that they too deserve recognition on our National Flag.

1964 Proposal (Pearson Pennant)


Since the middle of the 19th century, the maple leaf had been considered the prime symbol of Canada. As a result, a number of initial alternate flag proposals incorporated the leaf. Some designs tried to find a compromise and give a balance to both the British and French heritage of Canada.

Prime Minister Pearson favored this design. The flag was charged with three maple leafs (one representing the English, the other the French, and the third all other communities making up the country). The leafs were placed in the middle of two blue bars that represented the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans on the west/east coasts of the country. It had been nicknamed the "Pearson Pennant" by the opposition leader and former prime minister, John G. Diefenbaker.

The National Flag of Canada Turns 50!!!



Our red and white maple leaf flag was first raised over Parliament Hill 50 years ago on February 15, 1965. This is a significant and special milestone as Canadians prepare for the 150th anniversary of Confederation in 2017.

The 50th anniversary of our National Flag in 2015 will allow Canadians to reflect on our flag and what it represents — a strong, proud and free country. Our national flag speaks to what we have accomplished together, to the historical moments that have served to define us, and to the promising future of this great country.
