Up to 1965 the Canadian Navy used the Blue Ensign defaced.

The pic you showed has the [defaced] 1957-pattern crest, with the red leaves and the sanitized Irish harp. Tsk-tsk. I've sold probably 30 of the WW2 Red Ensigns to members of the Canadian Merchant Navy Veterans Association... by word of mouth. They love them!
