The crown represents service to the Sovereign. The grenade alludes to the original role of fusiliers, who were soldiers specially equipped to escort artillery trains. “FMR” is an abbreviation of a form of the regimental title and “NUNQUAM RETRORSUM” is the motto of the regiment. The Motto translates as “Never backward”.

The Blazon of the badge was confirmed by the Canadian Heraldic Authority on May 15, 2008.
