Happy Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day!This year the Canadian Flag celebrates 50 years. Joan O' Malley: Canada's flag lady from Ottawa sewed the first three prototypes. Lester B. Pearson chose the single, stylized maple leaf on a white background because it is easily recognizable. The eleven pointed maple leaf is quite showy in the wind.
'The Canadian Flag Waver' song composed by Stephen Bergen pays tribute to Canada's history..and is very catchy!
To commemorate the 50th anniversary, a fabric stamp of the Canadian flag was printed.
