PARAMEDIC CHIEFS OF CANADA
Official blazon
Arms: Or a star of life Azure its rod of Aesculapius Or all within an orle of maple leaves Gules
Crest: A Canadian Inuit dog courant proper
Supporters: Two unicorns Or armed and unguled Azure crined Gules standing on a rocky mount proper
Motto: AD HUMANITATEM SERVIENDAM
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on April 15, 2019.
The star of life charged with the Rod of Aesculapius, signifying medical healing, is a well-known symbol of paramedic services. The maple leaves refer to the provinces and territories of Canada.
A breed indigenous to Canada, the Canadian Inuit dog is known for its speed and strength, essential qualities for a paramedic. The unicorns symbolize healing, as their horns were said to have healing powers.
The motto means “To serve humanity.”
