Regimental Colours: The maple leaves and Royal Crown represent service to Canada and to the Sovereign. The thistles are common devices among badges of highland infantry regiments. The three seaxes refer to the arms of Essex County, England, and the white horse is from the arms of Kent County, England, these counties being the locations of the regiment’s former allied regiments The Essex Regiment and The Queen’s Own Royal West Kent Regiment. SEMPER PARATUS, a Latin phrase meaning “Always ready,” is the regiment’s motto. The scrolls record the battle honours given to the regiment. | Regimental Colours: The maple leaves and Royal Crown represent service to Canada and to the Sovereign.
