Proposal for a Quebec flag by Mr L.J.A. Derome in the La Presse newspaper of 10 April 1920. A St John the Baptist with maple leaves in the fly, the hoist divided horizontally, with 3 gold fleur de lys on azur, over a gold leopard on gules ; obviously representing the French and the English.

Proposal of 1930

by Jaume Ollé

The Action Nationale (still exists, I beleive) suggested for an independent Quebec this green-white-black vertical tricolor. This was a facsist, anti-semitist, ultra-nationalist movement, and the black of the flag represented the facsism of Mussolini in Italy.
