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.
