The maple leaves in the shield, blazoned "proper", wur oreeginally drawn vert (green) but wur redrawn gules (red) in 1957. A circlet o the Order o Canadae wis addit tae the airms for limited uise in 1987. The shield design forms the Royal Standard of Canada, an the shield is foond on the Canadian Red Ensign. The Banner o the Govrenor General o Canadae, which umwhile uised the shield ower the Union Banner, nou uises the crest o the airms on a blue field.
