The Group C finalist of the contest to adopt the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Canada" class="extiw" title="w:Flag of Canada">national flag of Canada</a>. Compromise idea was created by Alan Beddoe, who wanted to appease the Royalists and the French population. This was rejected, along with the Pearson Pennant, in favor of a red flag, with a white square, and a red maple leaf charged in the center.
