Description of the flag

The 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics' emblem is a stylized, pentagon-shaped, snowflake and/or maple leaf, made up of five large and five small letters of "C" to symbolize the country of Canada and the city of Calgary, above the Olympic rings.
Sylvain "Sly" Houde, 16 July 2008

According to a photo I have the rings are in their five colors, instead all red. Two registered marks are also part of the flag (one below the emblem, left part; other below the rings, right part; both in red).
