Not so. Canadian AF A310 is has a white top, blue and read striping converging near the forward door where a very large maple leaf is featured. The tail has a Canadian flag, two lines of the Canadian National Anthem are featured under the cockpit on different sides "The True North Strong and Free" and a line from the French version as well I think. It is a very clear advert for Canada and instead of CAF titles it simply has "GOVERNMENT OF CANADA" and "GOUVERNEMENT DU CANADA" on each side separated by a small maple leave as per the Canadian Flag.
