Flag of Winnipeg

The current flag of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, was adopted on October 1, 1975. In the centre lies the city's coat of arms, with blue to the upper left, and yellow to the lower right. The blue represents Winnipeg's clear blue sky, and the gold a field of wheat, the city's original primary economic activity; the colours and symbolism are thus similar to those of the flag of Ukraine.
