The Interesting Controversy of The Grouse Mountain Canada Flag

Recently there was this giant Canadian flag piece that was installed on Grouse Mountain where you can even see it from way below in the city areas. It apparently was a Guinness Record as well. While this should all be good, it seems the flag placement is incorrect from the traditional sense where the flag looks like it is upside down when you view it at a lot of angles from below. That isn’t good of course.

Apparently, the design was intentional as the focus was on the airplanes that fly by to say the Vancouver Airport. So people from those views should see it as intended. But it makes you think in this case if it would have been better to cater to what the majority of people would see. Imagine this as your business and you had to make a decision where a signage will be misinterpreted by a large portion of the population even though the minority of people you are targeting will see it as intended.

This is one of those things that require more thought I think. But either way, I go up there to see what it is like.
