Here is the tier list:

I don't understand his A tier flags, they're over detailed. Is it meant as a joke?

I think in both cases for the A tier flags he is giving them points for having the Maryland factor.

That being said, I'm amazed NL's flag doesn't score higher. It is probably tied for my favourite with Quebec's and I'm neither Newfie nor Quebecois.

Also a bit disappointed that he didn't mention some of the other famous unofficial flags like,

Ontarian Francophones,

The Acadian flag,

The Mi'kmaq flag,

Or the Iroquois Flag,

Canada has many awesome flags, but a lot of them aren't provincial

He seems to really like "Maryland-style" flags, which just have a ton going on all over the place. I don't really like those kinds of flags, though honestly New Brunswick's isn't that bad. The top and bottom strips each stick to a solid color on a solid background (yellow on red for the top and white on blue for the bottom). I'm not a huge fan of the middle strip with the ship โ€” I think it would be better if it stuck to solid color on solid color like the top and bottom โ€” but it doesn't use that many colors and goes well with the water.
