W5: Seeking the origins of Canada's maple leaf flag

Portions of the Diefenbaker Collection were featured on a March 22nd episode of CTV’s W5, titled Seeking the origins of the Maple Leaf flag, finding the soul of our nation. Hundreds of potential Canadian flags were proposed during the years in which the flag debate took place, a variety of which were presented to Mr. Diefenbaker (himself a staunch defender of the Red Ensign). Watch the W5 report, or see a gallery of proposed flags.
