Flag is a logo on white.
Dave Fowler, 7 March 2022
The logo, which was adopted in 2001 to replace the previous logo adapted in
1999, features in the center a double "F" shaped like birds. This highlights the
municipality as a residential place integrated to its natural environment and
respecting its environmental responsibility. The two birds emphasize the
harmonious settlement of the territory by the two important communities, the
French-speakers and the English-speakers.
Number "1792" recalls the canton's
first settlement, debunking the myth of a young suburb lacking history.
Red
recalls the color used by Loyalists to paint their houses; the typography
matches that commonly used in the late 18th century.
