good humour well the re not getting me into it this time four or five vears ago during the last fla fiaseo i took a stand and declared myself for a truiv canadian flag in fact i went so far as to outline a dis tinctive design that would have made our flag stand out anywhere ive forgotten some of the de tails but the general outline was something like this in the mid die a purple ptg representing the dignified prosperity of the cana dan people rampant on a field of rye canadian club of course with an okanagan apple in his mouh the hog the rye and the app e ou see would cover ontario the prairn prov incei and b c to pacify quebec wed put in one orner an illustration of rocket hichard juggling two cans uf mab- lant pea soup in the opposite corner wcd have to lump the mar iluncs and newlie by a figure howing a cod crossed with joey smallwood there were a few other little touches i think i suggested a iniature jolly roger with a cou pie of sections of pipeline substltut ed for the crossbones and oh yes the entire flag would be outlined wfth cutout figures in scarlet of the mounties doing their musical ride now lhat in my opinion would have heen a truly distinctive thor oughly canadian flag not one of llhese niorpnodic monstrosities that tries to case the ego of everv immigrant who ever stumbled ashore seasick in the true north strong and free there wouldn i be anothir like it in the world of course i should have known hat my unique design so clean ut and vivid so represen- ational would never survive the tuffy sentimentabty the national stic narrowness that prevails at ottawa i did learn from a friend here that it electrified the com mittee in charge of selecting a design for a new flag at least i think thafs the word he used but f must admit i was a bit hurt that my design wasn t even acknowledged unless of course you want to count thai letter from the minister of infernal affan offering me the job of canadian postmaster at tierra del ruego that was so obviously a case of a scared government trying to exile i brilliant mind that i triated it with the contempt it merited i ouldn t have lived on the salary anvwav as i learned whin i wrote no sir theyre not getting me into any maudlin argument about a canadian flag i must admit i am a bit fascinated though by the prospect of a distinctive can adian national anthem an oranizulion called the nal
