The Canadian Flag changed from either the Union Jack or The Red Ensign. This change was made because nationalists wanted Canada to have its own identity. The Loyalists wanted to stay loyal to Britain. There was a debate for the flag change. So later Queen Elizabeth 2 signed a proclamation that authorized Canada to have its own flag.
