Badge: Argent four Marconi communication towers Sable issuant from a base per fess crested Or and Azure.<br> | |||
Motto: COMMUNICATIONES CUM PERSEVERANTIA. | |||
===Origin/meaning=== | |||
The design evokes the rich history of communications in Glace Bay, especially the role that the community played in trans-Atlantic communications. It honours the work of Guglielmo Marconi (1874-1937) who, in December 1902, transmitted the first complete wireless messages to Poldhu, Cornwall, from Glace Bay, Nova Scotia. The Motto translates as “Communications with persistence”. | |||
The Badge was approved on February 20, 2009. | |||
