The coronet of His Royal Highness Prince Arthur represents the tie between the Duke of Connaught and the original regiment. The maple leaf and scrolls represent the perpetuation of the 7th Canadian Infantry Battalion, CEF. The bugle, laurel wreath and the inscription “DUKE OF CONNAUGHT’S OWN RIFLES” reflect the unit’s role as a rifle regiment from 1900 to 1920 and from 1930 to 1946. The battle honours represent the honours awarded to the regiment and its perpetuated units. The Motto translates as "Clear the way". | |||
The badge was approved by the Canadian Heraldic Authority on October 4, 2004. | |||
