:lol:

I was actually going to make a joke about that, about how it NEVER gets confused with the Chilean flag.  And of course there was the time the Texas A&M Corps of Cadets made a big Chilean flag to wave at their football game by mistake.

On the drive between Toronto and Montreal I remember starting to see a number of Canadian flags flying on several of the farms in the area.  The Canadian flag is a rare enough site in the cities, much more so in remote rural areas.  A few minutes later I saw the Québec, Vous Souhaite la Bienvenue sign and then nothing but Quebec flags all the way to Montreal.   :Canuck:

There is a stereotype that Ontarians see Ontario and Canada as synonymous. Probably not 100% accurate but I think you will see provincial flags a lot more in other parts of the country.

Hey, Toronto even has its own flag.

The ugliest flag in the history of flags, though. Looks exactly like an upside down pair of cartoon legs with a maple leaf for a figleaf.  :lol:

Ouch!

City flags tend to be hideous, though; here's Orlando's:

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I don't know, it's distinctive. For ugliest I would nominate any of the 30+ US state flags that consist of the state seal on a blue field with optional state name.

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Here's the flag of my hometown. Yes, that's a beige background :bleeding:

I stand corrected.  :lol:

Both Orlando and Laval have Toronto beat for the ugly prize.

Iowa's is what the Franco-Mexican Union flag would look like.

What is it with Quebec and your fascination with ugly 1970's fonts?

I'm trying to figure out what the block thing is? :huh:

I assume the building on the left is where they held slave auctions?  :hmm:
