That flag is so much cooler than the maple leaf

Too bad it was co-opted by a bunch of White supremacist shitheads.

Edit: I agree that it’s cooler but my point stands. I also own a certain Fred Perry shirt that was co-opted by the proud boys so that sucks.

Every Canadian prime minister up until Lester Pearson was a white nationalist as were the overwhelming majority of Canadians. The Red Ensign is a white nationalist flag in the truest sense and it represents the founding stock on the coat of arms.

Edit: before any mods or anyone else gets mad; nothing I said in this comment is factually untrue.
