That’s not the only error, it’s the Canadian Coat-of-Arms, not some nondescript “crest”. Reporters are idiots, and those who write on such subjects should be drawn and quartered when they make such glaring and insulting mistakes.
That said, the trudeau liEberals are trying to make hay out of Harper’s not making a big deal out of the anniversary of L.B. PEARSONS flag. There’s a reason there is no Tory blue in the flag.
I'm surprised that Québec never objected to the absence of blue. Not Tory blue but still...
