A majority of skateboards are composed of 7-ply Canadian Maple with adhesive between each layer.
The Canadian flag has a red maple leaf on a white background, with 2 red bars on each side.
The Canadian flag, also known as the Maple Leaf, consists of a red field with a white square in the center featuring a stylized red maple leaf. It has two vertical red bars on each side of the white square. It was adopted as the national flag of Canada on February 15, 1965.
The present Canadian flag is the red-and-white 'Maple Leaf' flag. It has two large red borders on each side, with a red maple leaf on a white background in the centre. There have been a few flags used by Canada. The one used immediately prior to the 'Maple Leaf' was known as the 'Canadian Red Ensign.' The Red Ensign contained the British 'Union Jack' in its upper left portion, with the Canadian Coat of Arms on the right, on a red background. Some Canadian provinces fly a 'red ensign' that displays its provincial coat of arms.
The red stripes represent the sacrifices made for Canada, the white square symbolizes the ice and snow of the North, the maple leaf represents the country's cultural heritage and its natural beauty, and the flag as a whole symbolizes unity and pride for the nation.
According to http://www.worldflags101.com/c/canada-flag.aspx The 11 points on the maple leaf emblem have no significance. Many people believe they stand for Canada's provinces, plus the federal government, but the emblem is just a recreation of an actual maple leaf.
