The coat of arms is:
- in the form of a shield ... symbolizes courage. The white field is the challenge to
be taken up;
the gold is the riches to be discovered on the lands of Kingsey Canton
- framing a red maple leaf ... our Canadian builders and our great forests
- cut in its width ... to represent our two entities, English and French
- by a blue banner ...
the St-François river where it all started
- on which is inscribed: Fraternité 1855 ...
francophones and anglophones work in harmony for the same purpose,
1855 being the date of the first session of the municipal council
- the upper part shows a silver church in front of a green hill ...
of various beliefs, the citizens display their faith
and the green hill is the beauty of our sites, the joy and the boldness of our people
- while at the bottom, a silver wheel mill sits adjacent to an ear of wheat ...
mills were built to meet the needs
of agriculture and remain a reality in our Canton
- the right of the field is surmounted by a white star edged in gold ...
the star represents the American English who emigrated to our region, from 1800, following the Independence of the United States
- and the left, a blue fleur-de-lis ...
of French descent, more and more Canadians are settling in the French village.
