City of Trail Coat of ArmsGranted in 2001, the City’s Coat of Arms shows the smokestacks that represent the smelting and refining industry in the city. The wavy base refers to the geographical setting by the Columbia River.

The stag on the crest represents an animal found in the area. The collar on the deer’s head alludes to the place of Trail in the Province of British Columbia (Dogwood flower and Maple Leaf) and combines the floral symbols of Canada.

The hockey sticks represent the two World Hockey Championships won by Trail teams (1939 and 1961) and the many other hockey championships won by the community teams.

The motto captures the essence of the community accomplishments, both by individuals and teams, without needing to be specific.

Original concept of: Charles Maier, Athabaska Herald, assisted by the heralds of the Canadian Heraldic Authority.

Painter: Eva Pilar-Cross

Calligrapher: Nancy Ellis
