Now this begs the question about the UK, Australia and Canada versions of #939.
My guess is that they may have the same #004158 sticker sheet #1 as the sets
just mentioned. And the differences may (like the other #939/#940 packs) be
sticker sheet #2. But that begs the question, do UK, Australia and Canada share
the same sticker sheet #2?

As a Canadian who owns and just located three of these sets, I can answer some
of your questions.

All three sticker sheets came in the Canadian #939.  I am looking at 003432,
004158 and 004159 right now.

I also have Canadian #575 box, instructions and sticker sheets with most of the
stickers still on the sheets.  The Canadian Flag is one (actually two) of very
few sticker I ever applied to LEGO.

My Canadian wavy flag is in rough shape as the mast snapped off of it many moons
ago.  This one I have no set information for.

I remember buying every scenery parts pack available in the 70s and have exactly
one stickered Canadian flag and know it came in #575 so I doubt this flag was
available in any other retail set.

Regards,
Doug
