A little good news story for JohnH
The Canadian flag celebrated it's 40th anniversary today.
All through elementary & jr high school, we saluted England's Union
flag....commonly referred to as the 'union jack', or the Red Ensign and sang
God Save the Queen.
After years of debate & wrangling a committee came up with our new flag.
Simple & beautiful. with the red maple leaf on a white background and red
bars at both ends to represent 'sea to sea' it was a great choice.

The Canadian flag is beautiful. The greatest thing about it is it's
'recognizability'.

Thanks for the story. I promise not to get angry and rant'n'rave because you
posted a 'good news story'!
