Since there has been some talk about New Zealand's flag, I thought I'd throw the Great Canadian Flag Debate out there. Which of these designs do you prefer?

The Red Ensign
The status quo option at the time of the flag debate.


The Pearson Pennant
Proposed by PM Lester Pearson.


The Current Canadian Flag
What was ultimately selected

I think I like the Pearson flag best, but I always liked the Red Ensign too. I don't like the current flag at all.

Easily the last one. Pearson is pretty cool, but the blue just doesn't work.

Our current flag is lovely. The Red Ensign was hideous crap.

The current one is minimalistic and free from any junk. It's probably one of my my favourite national flags of all. (I also like Nepal's, South Korea's, Libya's under Gadaffi and any flag with a dragon on it.

Current flag by far. One of the best national flags in the world.

Either the current flag or the similar Reid Scott proposal with blue bands instead of red.

Pearson Pennant. You guys should adopt that one when you finally end your ridiculous relationship with the British crown.

Huh?  How is the Pearson Pennant any different from the current flag in indicating Canada's degree of relationship with the British crown?

Not to mention that the combination of red and blue is kinda ugly, and the world has enough goddamn red-white-and-blue flags
