Grading Canada's Provincial Flags

Merry Christmas, Internet! I've unwrapped one of the Bonnie B bonus videos for the holidays.

It's the Canadian flag tier list, and even if you've seen it before, I've decorated it with,

uh, decorations. Hope you like it, and I'll be back after it's over.

Oh, Canada! Are your provinces and territories looking for flag grades as well?

Well, geez, you juniors are gonna have to give her living under this brilliant banner!

S-tier work, Canada!

You created the maple leaf as the most quintessential Canadian symbol by standing it out on bright red cut by white.

Your design so iconic, it defined new vexillogical vernacular, the Canadian pale,

a center stripe that, unlike other tricolors, covers half the width,

giving greater space for grand graphics when you're doing it right, or a big banner of words if you're Iowa.

You've set the national template to duplicate, as was done by the Muskeum First Nation,

with their Canadian pale using their own colors and their own symbol to make a superb pair of

related yet distinct national subnational flags.

Love it, love it, love it!

So line up, and let's take a look at what you've done to compare,

starting with the twins, Ontario, and Manitoba.

Ah, right.

So, I understand you're going for the historical Canadian look to match the nation's old red ensign,

and you really wanted that look, as you only made these flags official after the old ensign got swapped for the leaf.

A strong statement for history for sure, but I'm sorry, they just look terrible.

I mean, you've got two flags on your flags?

Never a good start.

Yes, one is for your constitutional monarchy, and the other for your royal coat of arms,

but the royal pixie dust sprinkled upon them doesn't make them look any better as flags.

I get what you're going for, and had all your siblings done the jack-in-arms, kind of like Australia, mostly,

it could have been better, but with only two of you and right next door, it's the worst of everything.

F tier.

I'm sorry.

Have a freezy.

Next, Nova Scotia.

Well, as a St. Andrew's Cross reversed, capped with the crest of the King of Scots,

it sure is super Scotland, and given your name, Nova Scotia, that's clearly what you wanted.
