Yukon

Yukon adopted its flag on 1 March 1968 after a territory-wide design contest held during Canada’s centennial year. The design uses a green, white, and blue Canadian pale with the territorial coat of arms centered on the white panel and framed by a wreath of fireweed, the territorial floral emblem. The green stripe represents Yukon’s forests, the white stripe symbolizes snow, and the blue stripe stands for the territory’s rivers and lakes.
