Beneath it, a backpacker stands turned to the right and gazes at the horizon beyond a landscape that is a cross-section of Canada. This traveler’s journey highlights the freedom and opportunities offered by Canada to explore and grow, whether at home or abroad. And while the addition of a small Canadian flag on the backpack is a common practice for Canadian travelers, it also speaks to the respect and recognition this national symbol receives throughout the world. The flag’s 50th anniversary is highlighted with a symbolic ring of 50 maple leaves. Since it was first raised in 1965, the National Flag of Canada has come to symbolize many of the values and opportunities that have defined Canada and its people. § The adoption of a national flag was proposed as far back as the late nineteenth century, but to no avail§that is, until the idea was raised again in 1964 by Prime Minister Lester B. § After much divisive debate, the National Flag of Canada was approved by Parliament in 1964. At the stroke of noon on February 15, 1965, the Canadian Red Ensign (Canada’s previous flag) was lowered on Parliament Hill and replaced by the National Flag of Canada! § The official way to describe the flag is by explaining it as a red flag with a white square in its centre, which is adorned with a red maple leaf. § The design is symmetrical§if you fold the flag from one red edge to the other, both halves should be the same! § The maple leaf has long been used as a symbol for this country; meanwhile, red and white were featured prominently in the Canadian coat of arms, as proclaimed by King George V in 1921. Official flag etiquette requires that the National Flag of Canada never touch the ground! Order your 99.99% pure silver proof set today! Please Check Out My 100’s Of Other Items That are Available!
