The Crown represents service to the Sovereign. The wreath of thistles (the national flower of Scotland), here, in the shape of a maple leaf representing service to Canada, is a common device among badges of highland infantry regiments. The leopard’s face is based on the crest of Lieutenant-Colonel William Alexander Logie, the regiment’s first commanding officer. “ARGYLL AND SUTHERLAND CANADA” is a form of the regimental title and “ALBAINN GU-BRATH” is the motto of the regiment. The Motto translates as "Scotland forever". | The Crown represents service to the Sovereign.
