Canadian Pride Flag

At the official site of the Montreal Divers/cité Festival, you will see that the flag flown by Madame Simone (the representative of the Montreal Divers/cité parade to the Toronto Gay pride) appears to be one, you will notice the white square with bit of the red maple leaf showing.

These are three variants of "Canadian bear pride flags", i.e. flags where the Maple Leaf of the Canadian flag is replaced by a bear footprint.

Queer Muslim Community

At http://www.torontopride.com/gallery/Image-Gallery-2004/parade/069FR.jpg is clearly a variation on the "Arab revolt" inspired flags of various mid-eastern country. it is the rainbow flag with a large pink triangle at the hoist pointing toward the fly. Inside are a white crescent and maple leaf (where the usual star would be) marking it for Canadian usage.
