During Canada's first century of independence the Union Jack
was still flown, but with a Canadian coat of arms. The maple leaf design,
with the national colors, became official on Feb. 15, 1965. Since 1868 the maple leaf has been a national symbol, and in 1921
a red leaf in the coat of arms stood for Canadian sacrifice during
World War I. |
