True, and there is no question that the provincial flag was an attempt to "secularize," to some extent, the Carillon-Sacré Coeur flag, although both flags have their roots in flags of the Ancien Régime.

VA flag
 
RU OX, I notice in the older flag that the tyrant seems to be lifting his head up, while in the others he's good and dead!
