Use of the flag

The flag mentioned by Andersson, red field and yellow cross, is based on the colours of the arms of Finland. It has been in use since before Finland's independence in 1917, and was considered for a national flag before the white and blue flag was adopted. It is supposedly still in use. However, my Swedish-Finnish colleague at work was unable to confirm this. He did say, however, that the colours are frequently used on pennants.

Situation

Finland has a Swedish speaking community making up about 6% of the total population. Swedish is recognized as an official language on par with Finnish.
