Quote::

On a Canadian two dollar bill, the flag flying over the Parliament building is an American flag.

That is a myth There are many versions to this "On the back of the 1$ bill" "On the 2 dollar bill" and it never ends.

The 2$ Bill is the Canadian Maple leaf flag. The flag on the 10$ which people said was the American Flag is the Canadian Red Ensign flag:



I attached a picture of a 1$ bill I have just to show you how small the pictures really are and how the flags are just really made up of a reall small area. Using my trusty ruler the flags are about .035 by .035 of a inch not that big to add real detail
