It bums me out that the Ontario flag is so bad. It would take like 10 minutes to throw the trillium on the same background as the national flag and have something unique and with less monarchy ick. The current logo is a bit corporate but it would be fine.

Please don't normalize putting logos on flags

Steel manning here, I think they didn't mean literally put a corporate logo on the flag. The trillium is the flower of Ontario, and can be simply drawn similar to the maple leaf.

This. Maybe not ideal, but way better than the crest and jack thrown on. I's like to see the colours be from Ontario's tartan.

It should be the franco-ontarian flag, with the trillium and the Fleur de Lys.
