Even if you eschew the word 'Corporate' certainly the Hudson Bay Company deserves a little bit of respect as the oldest American Corporation - and besides it's Canadian - so you can expect a healthy dose of politeness and friendliness.
North West Territories HBC Flag
Only a small eastern portion of this territory is a part of the Hudson Bay Water shed. This is the part of Canada that is mostly cold. However much of Canada has four distinct seasons!
Alberta HBC Flags
Alberta is often compared to being the Texas of Canada, because it's a 'red province.' However it seems more appropriate to compare Alberta to Louisiana. In fact, the southern portion of Alberta was a part of Louisiana Purchase in 1803! In addition Alberta's proverbial first name is Louisiana. Alberta Province was named after Queen Victoria's daughter - Louise Caroline Alberta. Thus appropriate nick names for Alberta Province include Louisiana Province and even Canadian Carolina Province! I suppose this is partly why this part of Canada is perceived as having a Southern Tilt.
Nunavut HBC Flag
Some of you may not be aware of this youngest of Canadian districts. It came in to being officially on April Fools day 1999, no joke! However although the youngest most of the people living there have been in Canada the longest - the Inuit.
Saskatchewan HBC Flag
Saskatchewan is the Kansas of Canada, or rather Kansas is the Saskatchewan of the United States, eh?
Manitoba and Ontario province are also a part of the Hudson Bay Water Shed but they will be discussed in a later post, since they are fraternal flag twins.
