The flag of the Town of Hay River is a Canadian pale design of
dark blue-white-dark blue, with the emblem of Hay River in the centre, nearly
the full height of the flag. The emblem is a circle with eight spokes, all in
medium blue, surmounted by a black sans-serif H, its height three-fourths the
interior diameter of the circle. Directly above the circle is a black vertical line
with a diamond-shaped arrow tip divided black on the left and white on the
right. Above the circle is a medium blue line zigzagging from 10 to 2 o’clock
and edged above by a yellow line of equal width. Below the circle curving
closely along its base is HUB OF THE NORTH in black sans-serif letters.

Rob Butler, graphic artist at Inkit Graphics in Yellowknife,
NWT, designed the flag based on the symbol designed by former mayor D.M. Stewart and Mrs. N.J. Mackie, a member of the municipal staff.

Here is nice photo of the town flag in 2011:

It shows that the flag is Canadian pale of light-blue stripes with logo in the
white stripe. The town's website shows the newest logo, so it may be that the
flag is changed again, but I didn't find any information about such possibility
