Meaning of the Flag
There is symbolism in both the design and the colors of the national flag of Canada. The colors are meant to symbolize hope and prosperity, as well as peace, tranquility and neutrality. The maple leaf design represents the cultural heritage of the nation and the natural resources of Canada.
There is also a 11-pointed red maple leaf centered in the middle of the white band. This maple leaf represents the culture heritage of Canada and the vast natural resources found within its borders.
Happy Canada Day Newcastle! Watch for the Car Tour around Town Today!!! Let's Celebrate and stay safe!!! We have so much to be thankful for!!
