A Flag
The Union Flag in the canton recalls New Zealand's colonial ties to Britain.
It's usually called the canton or the union.
It bears the Union Jack on the Canton and the Ontario Coat of Arms on the field.
It's not upside down. The flag on the right side appears backwards. This is correctly displayed as it imitates a flag on a staff; the canton is always next to the staff.
It is called the "union" or the "canton" in general flag terminology. In the United States of America it is described in our first Flag Resolution of June 14, 1777 - It stated: "Resolved: that the flag of the United States be made of thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new Constellation."
The Australian flag does not have any stripes. The Union Jack in the upper left corner (or canton), which has diagonal lines but not stripes, acknowledges Australia's origin as a British settlement.
the stars because they represent the 50 colanies of America [or states] and the strips represent the 13 original colanies [or states] of America :) the Origional US Flag Grand Union or "Continental Colors" was the Flag used by the British east India company with a Union Jack canton used from 1775 to 1777 the Malaysian flag was the same but with the English Flag cross of St george Canton in the corner the USA adopted "First Stars & Stripes" this flag on June 14, 1777 Both Malaysia and the Us decided to include the 13 Red and White stripes but the USA introduced the Stars Canton and Malaysia introduced the Muslim Crescent moon it is Nice to see that both remember in their flags the British input into their countries
