Origin/meaning

The maple leaves and beaver represent service to Canada, and the Crown, service to the Sovereign. The blue maple leaf on a white disc represents the waters of Lake Superior. “THE LAKE SUPERIOR SCOTTISH REGIMENT” is the regimental title and “INTER PERICULA INTREPIDI” is the motto of the regiment. This translates as “Fearless in the face of danger”.
