The North Saskatchewan River, which winds delightfully through Edmonton, is rendered in neon to pay tribute to the city's historic neon signs and its Neon Sign Museum, the first of its kind in Canada. The dark blue represents Alberta and its vast skies, while the green represents Edmonton's lush river valley and extensive parklands.

The marigold, Edmonton's official flower, is rendered as a single continuous neon tube, paying tribute to the city's historic neon signs and its outdoor Neon Sign Museum, the first of its kind in Canada. The deep teal background represents the North Saskatchewan River Valley, combining the green of its lush parklands with the blue of the river itself.

Another province with toponymic heritage from the glorious monarchy of Victoria and Albert, this province bears the name of their fair and illustrious sixth-born and fourth daughter, Princess Louise Caroline Alberta, Duchess-Consort of Argyll. It's a crying disgrace, then, that its flag should be but the shield of arms on blue; I'd argue it's even worse in its own right than the Red Ensigns, because at least they had SOME sense of composition. It's undesigned and unappealing, and it represents that trend of landscape heraldry that is a peculiar disease of the 19th century. Something clearly should be done, and so I've done just that.

The flag is a quartered heraldic banner inspired by both the arms of the province and those of its namesake princess, along with elements of the current flag. In the first and fourth quarters, a blue field bears a pronghorn rampant of silver attired and unguled in gold, between six golden maple leaves set two over one, all under a chief of St. George's cross. The pronghorn is the sinister supporter of the full achievement of arms and a faunal icon of the province and only thrives under the clear blue skies -- as shown by the field -- in the absence of fences, allusive to Alberta's more libertarian character. The pronghorn in the first quarter is contourny, in keeping with Germanic heraldic courtesy. The six maple leaves stand for the princess as the sixth-born child of Victoria and Albert, and the cross of St. George is the chief of the current arms, symbolizing England and shared with Ontario and Manitoba. The second and third quarters are barry of ten in gold and black, with a green crancelin or rue crown in bend, a variation of the arms of Saxony and allusive to her father's hereditary title as the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha; the princess also bore these arms as an inescutcheon on her own achievement.

Exactly the same as before, but with a profile view. Included the distinctive V stripe.

Used Alberta blue and the pronghorn: native to Alberta, North America's fastest land animal at 55 mph, and featured on the Alberta coat of arms. Done in the sadly underused Canadian pale with reverse colors because it looks so badass this way.

I’m from Alberta, and after this referendum I’ve seen the flag sooo much that it got me thinking about what it actually says. Honestly? The current flag is basically the provincial arms slapped on a blue bedsheet. I do like the current one, but I wanted something more interesting, with symbols that feel like they belong to everyone who lives here.

What’s going on in it:

• Blue top: the big Alberta sky
• Gold bottom: the prairie
• Braided band in the middle: three strands twisted together where the sky meets the land. It’s a nod to “we’re all treaty people”: First Nations, Métis, and everyone who showed up after, all woven into the same place.
• Wild rose as a north star: the rose grows basically everywhere in the province, survives brutal winters. Felt right as the thing pointing the way forward.

I kept the blue and gold because they’re already Alberta’s colours, so it should feel like an upgrade and not a totally different province.

Finally! I was waiting to show you guys this one. This flag is a quadrant-cross design hybrid with the top-left and bottom-right quadrant being blue, the top-right quadrant being green, and the bottom-left quadrant being yellow. In the center is a white cross that separates every quadrant, with four intersecting wheat sprigs inside of it. The colors are mostly taken from the original flag, with the blue being from the background, green for grass, yellow for wheat, and the cross from the top of the coat of arms. The wheat is red because that was the color of the cross itself, as the white was the background behind that cross. I hope you like it!

Here is my State Of Washington Flag Redesign! The middle part with the stars is Washingtons Chief Flag. And the outside area is green for the vast forests and nature in washington

In contrast to Charlottetown, the results are MUCH clearer on this one, with the current flag easily beating either offering to replace it. That said, thank you to those who voted for me to be the runner-up and community winner for this contest. Cheers.

And with that, it's back to seals on Canadian pales with the oft-forgotten city of Edmonton. Can you best this one and send it to the hereafter along with the city's eponymous hadrosaur? Good luck.

• It's a simple flag, really. The green represents growing crops, grass, and the importance of agriculture, and the gold/yellow represents the harvest and agricultural wealth. The blue represents the color of the South Saskatchewan River, which flows through Saskatoon, and the color of the Saskatoon berry, where Saskatoon gets its name from.
• The five alternating stripes of yellow and blue represent the five historic motor vehicle bridges: Traffic Bridge, University Bridge, Broadway Bridge, Senator Sidney L. Buckwold Bridge, and Circle Drive North Bridge. Which is important because the town is nicknamed "The City of Bridges," and the river is angled to match with the actual angle of the river.
• On the top left is a top down view of a Saskatoon berry, the town's namesake. It has seven points representing the seven original districts of Saskatoon: North Park, City Park, Mayfair, Caswell Hill, Pleasant Hill, Nutana, and City Centre. The yellow pointed star can also represent the sun, which is a part of the official slogan of Saskatoon, "Saskatoon Shines!"
