Description of the flag

The colour green indicates the verdant lands around the town. The large horizontal stripe refers to the St. Lawrence River, and the smaller vertical stripe refers to the Gananoque Creek. The gold discs indicate that the Thousand Islands are nearby. The canton of the Royal Union flag of 1707 indicates that the town was settled by the Loyalists, who identified strongly with this flag.
