| | The 9 Province Flag (Canada) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21) |
 | | In the last decades of the 19th century the official flag of Canada, on land, was the Union Jack. |
 | | The badge on the flag used by Canadian government vessels was a shield, derived from the Great Seal of Canada, which combined the arms of the four original provinces, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. |
 | | In 1870 when Manitoba became the fifth Canadian province it was, unlike the other provinces, not represented on the flag. |
