About the Canada flag emoji
A red maple leaf on white between two red bands โ that is the Canada flag as an emoji, ๐จ๐ฆ. The Canada flag is built from the regional indicator letters C and A, the two-letter code CA, which fonts join into the single Canada flag. Windows has no flag artwork, so there CA appears as the letters C A. Canada (CA) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); CA renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy CA from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Canada with the other North America flags, such as Mexico, listed beside Canada.
