OTOH, it could lead to some interesting classroom dynamics in school
districts that are too poor to buy enough red crayons so that the
children wouldn't have to share them around. 8-D

Interesting!
But Albania? With that monster? Okay... LOL!
I do recall that one criteria mentioned at the time our flag was being decided upon was
"drawability". Something simple and easy for schoolkids to draw was desirable.
Makes sense to me.
Of course these lists can be silly but are fun, and if nothing else spark
debate and discussion.
Thanks for sharing!

Good luck with the new flag. As I already said, I think we have a
wonderful flag, and we certainly could have done worse:

Until the 1960s our flag was the Red Ensign, a Union Jack on a red
field
with the shield of Canada thereon. Even as a kid I thought it was
humiliating.
Living in a land where we still have that sort of humiliation, I
envy
you!
We have a referendum coming up to decide whether to change our flag.
I
just hope that whatever new design we might end up with isn’t worse.
