The logo of the MRC evokes one of its basic missions, the planning of territorial management and development. Featuring the local, diversified, landscapes, the logo highlights:
- the dynamism and solidarity of the region and its population, represented by interspersed shapes.
- rivers and lakes, which are evoked by the curved, moving lines and by the blue color.
- the generosity of the natural environment and the significance of the forest ecosystem, which are recalled by the green shades and the tree.
- the effervescent context and commitment to sustainable development, which are illustrated by the abundant foliage.
- the Chic-Chocs mountain range, which is illustrated by the white counter-shape and evokes adventure.
- the cultivated plain, which is represented by the two sections in soft green color at the bottom of the mountains.
