Flag Design Attempt #1


Here's one quick try at a new flag design. Given the harsh winters we are prone to the snowflakes were an obvious choice. The suns represent the open sky and also our immigrant population (notice that it's the same sun used on the Filipino flag). The bison represents the aboriginal population and our heritage. The yellow is for wheat (and canola). The blue is for water. The white is for the European folk (maybe).

I found a good image and was going to include the mosquito, but I thought it might be a bit too cliché... maybe for attempt #2.
