Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Flag of Calgary

Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) to serve as the——primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated——to the "entity in question."

Not replaceable with
free media because (WP:NFCC#1) Any derivative work based upon the logo would be a copyright violation, "so creation of a free image is not possible."

Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) Because this article is an official work of the Canadian government, there is no equivalent substitute, and the copyright will expire in 2034.

Respect for
commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) The use of a low resolution image of an organization's logo in the article about that organization will not impact the commercial viability of the logo.

Description	Calgary city flag introduced in 1983.
Source	https://commons.wikimedia.org/File:Flag_of_Calgary.svg
Article	Calgary
Portion used	The entire flag is used to convey the meaning intended and "avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image."
Low resolution?	This is an SVG vector image of a registered trademark or a copyright-protected logo, seal or computer icon. This image should not be rendered any larger than is required for the purposes of identification and/or critical commentary. The default rendering of this image is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Purpose of use	The image is used to identify the organization Calgary, a subject of public interest. The significance of the flag is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey.
Replaceable?	Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image. Or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
