Horses have played an important role in the local economy from pioneer times, and show horses are still raised in the area. The collars they wear indicate the Province of Ontario and the Municipality of Clarington itself. The base on which they stand includes the floral emblems marking the early settlement of English, Scottish, and Irish people, with the provincial flower, the trillium, representing the original native settlement of Huron, Iroquois, and Mississauga people.
