In keeping with the traditions of the British Brigade of Guards, the Canadian
GGFG also use their National Flag as the base for their Regimental Colour NOT
the Queen's Colour. The Queen's Colour is crimson with the crest of Canada in
the centre and 11 Battle Honours emblazoned on each side.

Also in keeping with the traditions of the Brigade of Guards, a company badge
is borne in the centre of the colour, and this changes with each new stand of
colours. The Prince of Wales's feathers is the badge of No.2 Company. The
current badges are shown at
