We're intrigued by the #Duluth flag’s (coincidental) similarity to our North Star Flag proposal for #Minnesota – a kind of statewide archetype, unique in the world. #NorthStarFlag#vexillology
A supporter: “The North Star flag will make our flag more simple and recognizable, along with using colors to represent us today. This flag can be used to fly at sports games, to show your pride and connection to #Minnesota, and people will recognize it as #Minnesota.” We agree!

The North Star Flag gets it name from the Minnesotan Motto, "L'étoile du Nord." The Blue represents our lakes, the white winter, the green the farmlands in the south and the yellow star for the wealth our state has such as the iron north near Duluth.
More Reddit feedback (2017): “I wish our state flag was the green and blue one. [Reply:] They really are the best colors.” --- "Neat to see that the North Star flag getting used. It's a really lovely design." #Minnesota#NorthStarFlag
