Province : Manitoba
Official blazon

Crest: The southwest bastion of Lower Fort Garry proper.

Motto: Two does Argent unguled Azure standing on a limestone outcrop proper
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on September 20, 2007.
A blue shield with a white diagonal cross is the coat of arms attributed to St. Andrew. The bison is taken from the arms of Manitoba.
Lower Fort Garry, located in St. Andrews, was a significant fur-trading post.
The does are a reference to the rapids known as Sault à la biche (biche is French for doe). The limestone is a local geological feature.
