Flag of Windsor, Ontario : ウィキペディア英語版 | Flag of Windsor, Ontario
The flag of Windsor, Ontario, was designed by an unknown citizen during a local contest in 1971. The blue and white represent the Detroit River and Saint Lawrence Seaway, respectively. The flag contains the seal of the city in the upper left and a rose in the lower right, highlighting Windsor's alternate motto, "The Rose City"/"City of Roses." The city seal was replaced in 1992 by a corporate seal. The date of 1854 on the seal signifies the final date in which the railroad to Windsor was completely built and the city was formed by the amalgamation of several other settlements. It is also the date that it was founded as a town. On 08 May 1992, the Canadian Heraldic Authority formally granted to Windsor a new flag: ''Azure on a Canadian pale Argent the shield of Arms of the City of Windsor'': ''Or on a pale between two roses Gules barbed Vert charged with a cogwheel Or a fleur de lys Or above a rose Or barbed Vert charged with a cogwheel Gules a chief undy Azure''.〔''Canada Gazette'', vol. 126 (25 Jul 1992), p. 2303〕 It appears that, after the Letters patent had been issued, the city declined to adopt the new flag officially.〔 ==References==
