Where does the red-white pattern on the Canadian flag come from?

From the flag of the Royal Military College, Kingston, founded in 1876

Option B is incorrect because the Union Jack refers to the flag of the United Kingdom, not Canada.

Option C is incorrect because the Canadian Red Ensign was used as the unofficial flag of Canada before the current national flag was adopted in 1965.

Option D is incorrect because while the maple leaf is a symbol commonly associated with Canada, it is not the source of the red-white pattern on the flag. Instead, the pattern originated from the flag of the Royal Military College, which was a significant institution in Canadian history.
