As the parent commenter said, it is inherently political.
If a Quebec separatist wrote some software, they might give Quebec a flag of its own like a country in the software. (I've seen it before!) Political statement. Or they could leave it out and use the Canadian flag -- also a political statement in the eyes of some. There's no way out of it, really.
It would be sad and petty if a GitHub PR spam war started over the flag in question. But politics is often sad and petty.
