The burgee is a dark
blue field, with a white bar, with on that bar a red maple leaf, and three red
five-pointed star, each with one point up.
I assume, the red maple leaf
stands for Ontario, the single Canadian province bordering Lake Superior, while
the three red stars represent Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan, the three
United States bordering Lake Superior.
