Flag

The flag shown here was chosen with 14 other flags to be included on a heritage poster showing a selection of military flags of Canada. It is either still in use, or is a historical flag in the sense that it was in use in what is now Canada. These 15 fifteen flags, selected from among dozens of others, do not have a written symbolism.
