Take a look at the pathetic attempt at a Canadian Flag. It's hideously incorrect in its proportions, despite the US flag being roughly correct. I get annoyed when tourist trinket stores sell incorrect flags, so to hear that Pier 21 in Halifax hosted the Prime Minister and the US President and used horrible flags REALLY annoys me. But I doubt anybody else will even blink.
For the Americans: how would you feel if we had displayed a flag with only 40 stars? Or 12 stripes? Grrr.
The correct proportions and sizing of the Canadian Flag

at least, in my book.
