The Fused Flag
Upon the Fusion Accord of 1837, the flags of Jonquière and Tadoussac were merged to create the new flag of Jonquiere-Tadoussac. This flag was meant to balance the merits of both flags.
This flag survived without comment until Jonquiere-Tadoussac joined the International Democratic Union. At that point, debate was aroused as to whether or not a new flag should be adopted to show the new alliegence of the country. A compromise was reached by adding the IDU scales of justice in a rondel the centre of the flag for all dealings with the IDU.
