===Origin/meaning===
The badge incorporates a "V" design in blue and white in reference to the Victoria class of submarines and the colours of Quebec. The bear is an animal indigenous to the Chicoutimi area representing ferocity and strength. It protects a fleur-de-lis and stands on waves representing both the maritime environment in which the vessel operates and the rivers and lakes of the Chicoutimi area. The Motto in French translates as “Master of the domain”.
The Badge was approved by the Canadian Heraldic Authority on March 1, 2000. The Motto was confirmed by the Canadian Heraldic Authority on January 15, 2020.
