The canton was formed on 15 October 1820.
The flag and the coat of arms are shown as drawings on a PDF
document available on the website of the Association of
Ecuadorian Municipalities: The flag is shown as horizontally
divided green-red-green.
Translation of the text from <www.geocities.com/clgonza>
(defunct - located by Olivier Touzeau, 4 March 2003):
"The flag of Jipijapa has its origin in 1910, when a foreign
fishing company attempted to take the control of the Salango
island, then part of Jipijapa; the inhabitants all demonstrated
againt this claim and the Society of the Workers "Parrales
and Guale" hoisted the green-red-green flag. The flag was
then used traditionally until officially declared the flag of the
Canton of Jipijapa on 8 January 1965." The municipal
website's symbols page tells the same story.
Photographs
taken in July 2008 confirms that the flag of Jipijapa as
horizontally divided green-red-green, with the same 1:2
proportions as the national and provincial flags.
