  • Approaches to Vexillological Research—Port Flags In
    APPROACHES TO VEXH.LOLOGICAL RESEARCH: PORT FLAGS IN AUSTRALIA AND CANADA A CASE STUDY ^ Kevin Harrington SYNOPSIS Flags for Port Authorities have followed in the heels of the movement towards more active government interest and involvement in the multifold activities of ports and harbours, a movement particularly pronounced in the past two decades, as technology and trade developments rapidly expanded. PORT FLAGS A STUDY OF DEVELOPMENTS IN AUSTRALIAN AND CANADIAN PORTS INTRODUCTION Vexillological research into the flags of ports, harbour commissions and port authorities poses a number of problems. First of all, one could ask the question why should such research be done at all. Secondly how does one gather the data, i.e. - where is the information? Thirdly, where does one stop, what are the dimensions or framework for the research? We have gathered the data by writing directly to port managers in both Australia and Canada. This paper will primarily describe the various flags and suggest some directions worthy of further consideration. FLAGS OF NEW SOUTH WALES Visits to the Maritime Services Board (MSB) of New South Wtdes followed our correspondence (See Appendix 1). Three port flags were shown and discussed in an interview with Marketing Manager Robert Worsley. The official MSB flag, made by Harry West of East Balmain, Sydney, is a British blue ensign defaced by the MSB badge. This badge comprises a red disc bearing a representation of a sailing vessel, the Sirius. Surrounding the disc is a lifebuoy alternately blue.and yellow, a symbol of maritime safety. A white ribbon with red backing where shown, bears in black lettering the words THE MARITIME SERVICES BOARD OF N.S.W.

  • An Argument from Design
    Raising the Standard: An Argument from Design Tony Burton Abstract The creative process and principles informing the design of some special purpose and other flags lead to conclusions for flag design in general. The dynamics of metaphor and shape- shifting are considered. The scope for greater pageantry and innovation in flag design is explored. Current national flags of complex or awkward design present a challenge. Possible remedies are suggested. To paraphrase a famous utterance, the known delivers the unknown, and as at least one national flag of recent vintage demonstrates, the unknown can lead to an unforeseen, but serendipitous result. Among the many instances of how not to design a flag, how to is more worthwhile. Vexillologists have higher standards.

  • Hamilton, Ontario Population Rank: Canada
    70 Canadian City Flags Hamilton, Ontario Population Rank: Canada. 9 Province. .3 Proportions: 1:2 Adopted: 11 December 2002 DESIGN: The flag of the City of Hamilton is a Canadian pale design of golden yellow-blue-golden yellow. In the centre is a cinquefoil (a five-pointed heraldic flower with wavy petals), surrounded by a circular chain of twelve rectangular links with rounded corners, alternating large and small, all in golden yellow. The diameter of the circular chain is nearly the full height of the flag. SYMBOLISM: Blue and gold have long been the city’s colours. The cinque- foil is the badge of the Clan Hamilton, representing the city’s name. The links of the chain are a heraldic symbol of unity and also symbolize steel, a major element in the city’s identity—Hamilton is known as the Steel Cap- ital of Canada. The six larger links represent the six municipalities that joined to form the current City of Hamilton: the former City of Hamilton, the City of Stoney Creek, the Towns of Ancaster, Dundas, and Flambor- ough, and the Township of Glanbrook. The colours and central elements come from the shield of the city’s arms, designed with the assistance of the Canadian Heraldic Authority in Ottawa, and approved by the city council in January 2001. Hamilton, Ontario 71 HOW SELECTED: Presented at a city council meeting on 11 December 2002 by Bishop Spence and Dr. Greaves, and adopted unanimously by coun- cil. The flag was included in a grant from the Canadian Heraldic Authority on 15 July 2003.

During what the present thesis calls the “crisis of Britishness” from 1964 to 1968, the British character of Canada was redefined and Britishness portrayed as something foreign or “other.” This post-British conception of Canada has been buttressed by historians depicting the British connection as a colonial hangover, an externally-derived, narrowly ethnic, nostalgic, or retardant force. However, Britishness, as a unique amalgam of hybrid identities in the Canadian context, in fact took on new and multiple meanings.

  • Canadian City Flags Is Called a “Fraise” in Heraldry
    Abbotsford, British Columbia 1 Abbotsford, British Columbia Population Rank: Canada. 23 Province. 4 Proportions: 3:5 (1:2 usage) Adopted: 25 October 1995 DESIGN: The flag of the City of Abbotsford has a green field with a yellow disc in the centre, approximately three-fifths the height of the flag. Eight yel- low bars run from the disc to the edges and corners of the flag. The width of each bar is slightly less than one-fifth the height of the flag. In the centre of each bar, one-third its width, is a blue stripe running from the edge of the disc to the corner or the middle of the edge of the flag. Centred on the disc is a stylized flower composed of a central disc surrounded by a ring of ten smaller discs, all in yellow, over five white petals surrounding the ring, their edges touching and the uppermost pointing to the top of the flag. Extending from each junction between the petals is a small pointed leaf (sepal) in light green. SYMBOLISM: Abbotsford is known as the “Hub of the Fraser Valley” and the flag is a symbolic depiction of this slogan. The bars represent the roads in the area, with the central disc representing Abbotsford at the centre of the crossroads. The green field represents the agricultural fields, meadows, and forests within Abbotsford. The green was derived from the flag of the Dis- trict of Matsqui (which amalgamated with the District of Abbotsford in June 1995 to become the City of Abbotsford).

  • Canadian City Flags
    98 Canadian City Flags Leamington, Ontario Population Rank: Canada. 60 Province. .24 Proportions: 3:5 Adopted: 22 February 1999 DESIGN: The flag of the Municipality of Leamington has a white field with a large badge in the centre, nearly the full height of the flag: a maple leaf in golden yellow graduating to a darker hue at the edges, and detailed on the left and right with the leaf’s veins in black. Surmounting the leaf is a simple shield with a top arched slightly and sides curving slightly outward from the top down to a “U”-shaped point, edged in black. In the upper fourth is a red cross on white. Surmounting the centre is a smaller shield of the same shape, with a white field and a blue border edged outside and inside in yellow. In its centre is a standing lion in green, with four small fleurs-de-lis in golden yel- low placed around it in the cardinal positions. Surmounting the lion is a blue inverted “V” shape, edged in yellow, with its apex aligned over the lion’s mid- section. On the “V” are seven yellow discs, with one at the apex and three on each side. In the blue border are eight fleurs-de-lis in yellow, placed at the top, the corners, the base, and two on each side, spaced evenly. The lower three- fourths has a forest green field; on it, below the inner shield, are three maple leaves in approximate positions of 5, 6, and 7 o’clock; they are orange, with black veins, and edged in yellow; the lowest leaf is oriented vertically, the oth- ers are angled outwards.

Opinion by Quinn, Administrative Trademark Judge: Certa ProPainters, Ltd., a limited partnership organized under the laws of Massachusetts, filed an application to register the mark shown below Ser. No. 77046679 for “house painting; painting; painting in the field of residential and commercial buildings.”1 The trademark examining attorney refused registration under Section 2(b) of the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. §1052(b), on the ground that applicant’s proposed mark contains a simulation of a flag of a foreign nation, specifically Canada, and/or displays the official national insignia of Canada, namely the Canadian maple leaf. When the refusal was made final, applicant appealed. Applicant and the examining attorney filed briefs. Before turning to the merits of the appeal, we first consider an evidentiary matter. Applicant’s brief makes specific reference, for the first time during the prosecution of its application, to several “non-simulative” flag designs in third-party registered marks. More specifically, applicant points out that the USPTO uses “maple leaf” as a design code for searching trademarks, and that there are 509 live registered marks containing a maple leaf design.
