The International Canoe Federation (ICF) is the umbrella organization of all national canoe organizations. 
Its headquarters is in Lausanne, Switzerland, and ICF administers all aspects of canoe sport worldwide. 
Currently, 147 countries are affiliated with the ICF. Its predecessor organization, the Internationale 
Repräsentantenschaft Kanusport (IRK) was formed in Copenhagen, Denmark on 19 January 1924, it became the ICF in 1946.

The protocol manual for the London 2012 Olympics 
(Flags and Anthems Manual London 2012 [loc12]) 
provides recommendations for flag designs. Each 
international federation and international 
paralympics federation was sent an image of the flag, including the PMS 
shades, for their approval by LOCOG. Once this was obtained, LOCOG produced a 60 
x 90 cm version of the flag for further approval. So, while these specs may not 
be the official version of each flag, they are certainly what the
international federation and 
international paralympics federation believed the flag to be.

Last year Ian Sumner made some scans from the flag manual for the London 
2012 Olympics (Flags and Anthems Manual London 2012) which provides 
recommendations for flag designs of international sporting federations.
For International Canoe Federation - ICF: PMS 7461 blue.
