In 1964, the Prime Minister Lester Pearson’s personal choice
was three red leaves on a white background with blue borders, but Canada’s
official colours were only red and white. In the end the all-party committee

two red borders.Today we celebrate the 53rd anniversary of our
flag. A symbol of honour, perseverance and courage.
