The flag features the Union Jack across the top with a golden crown in the center, and the lower portion displays a golden setting sun over alternating blue and white wavy stripes representing the Pacific Ocean. The design symbolizes British Columbia's position between the Crown and the sea.
British Columbia's flag is the only Canadian provincial flag to feature both the Union Jack and a setting sun, symbolizing the province's position as the westernmost province and its British colonial heritage.
