The Canadian flag that was in use immediately prior to the present maple leaf flag was klnown as 'the Canadian Red Ensign.' There were also other Canadian flags before the Red Ensign.
The present Canadian flag was introduced in 1965.
The official name of the Canadian flag is the National Flag of Canada, its national day is February 15th. The largest Canadian flag ever made was 124 by 249 feet. It was King George V who appointed the red and white as the official colors of the country, and obviously, the official colors of the flag. It should not be used as cover for any kind of surface and nothing could be sewn or pinned on it.
The British flag is in the Canadian Coat of Arms because the Canada was formed from British colonies.
Before the adoption of the current Canadian flag on February 15, 1965, Canada did not have an official flag. The "Canadian Red Ensign," which featured the Union Jack and the Canadian coat of arms, was commonly used as a national symbol, especially during World War II. It was informally associated with Canada but was never officially recognized as the national flag. The new flag, featuring a red maple leaf on a white background, was introduced to represent a distinct Canadian identity.
When a Canadian flag touches the ground, it is generally considered disrespectful and a violation of flag etiquette. According to Canadian guidelines, the flag should always be treated with dignity and should not be allowed to touch the ground or any other surface that could be seen as degrading. If a flag does touch the ground, it is customary to properly clean it and, if necessary, retire it respectfully.
The national flag was the Royal Military College of Canada flag.
