Newfoundland and Labrador

The flag of Newfoundland and Labrador is a white background featuring four blue triangles near the hoist, two elongated white triangles bordered in red, and a stylized gold-and-red arrow directed toward the fly end. It is also a stylized version of the Union Jack.
== Symbolism==
The stylized Union Jack is a symbol of the United Kingdom, the former colonial power of the area. The proportions of 1:2 are the proportions of the Canadian flag.
The design was selected for its wide-ranging symbolism. Blue represents the sea, white signifies the snow and ice of winter, red symbolizes the effort and resilience of Newfoundlanders and Labradorians, and gold reflects their confidence in themselves and their future.
The design also features a trident to highlight reliance on the sea, indigenous ornamentation, a maple leaf, and a Christian cross.Flag of Newfoundland and Labrador at Brittanica
