	Flag of Canada
		An Act adopting a new National Flag of Canada passed, after closure was invoked...
		Prime Minister Mackenzie KING's attempts to adopt a national flag in 1925 and again in 1946 failed, and eventually, in 1964, Prime Minister Lester B. assigned the task of evolving a suitable design to an all-party, 15-member special committee.
		Red and white had been sanctioned as national colours by the royal proclamation granting a coat of arms to Canada in 1921, and the maple leaf had enjoyed a long tradition as a symbol of Canada.

		The present Union Flag not only represents a political union of three kingdoms, that of England, Scotland and (Northern) Ireland, it is itself a union of the three flags which separately serve to represent those kingdoms: the crosses of Saints George, Andrew, and Patrick.
		A flag that lacks a legal basis is vulnerable to the caprice of fashion: Just as the Union Flag rose with the ascendancy of imperialism at the beginning of the twentieth century, it sank with the resurgence of nationalism in mid-century.
