The Municipality

Deux-Montagnes is on the north shore of the Rivière des Mille Îles where it flows out of Lac des Deux Montagnes. It is the seat of the Deux-Montagnes Regional County Municipality in the greater Montreal region.


Description of the flag

There is a white flag with the logo (March 2001).
Luc Baronian, 22 May 2005

The flag shows the logo arranged on a white field.

About the logo:
https://www.ville.deux-montagnes.qc.ca/en/visual-identification/
This logo reflects the geographic and social characteristics of the City of Deux-Montagnes.

The two triangles represent the two mountains from which its name originates, namely the Calvaire Mountain and Saint-Joseph-du-Lac Hill. The wavy base at the bottom of each triangle is a reminder of the two waterways bordering Deux-Montagnes, namely Lake of Deux-Montagnes and the Mille-Îles River.

The overlapping triangles symbolize the exceptional community life and spirit of support that prevail on the territory. It’s also a recall of the close collaboration that exists between both of Deux-Montagnes linguistic communities, as 20% of its population is English-speaking while the other 80% is francophone.

The logo’s colours – green and blue – are an echo of Deux-Montagnes ecological vision and a reminder of one of the territory’s main attractions: nature. The green is for the Roger-Lemoine woodland, the trees, the bicycle path and the parks, the blue for the two waterways that border half the city.
