| Reverse lettering | Lester Pearson had promised the nation a distinctive Canadian flag and the controversial red and white maple leaf design was first raised on Parliament Hill on February 15, 1965. Le drapeau distinctif que Lester Pearson a promis est adopté après de vifs débats. L'unifolié rouge et blanc est hissé sur la colline du Parlement pour la première fois le 15 fév. 1965. |
