City flag

Flag is the municipal logo on white.
Dave Fowler, 31 January 2022

 The arrows pointing to the center evokes a moving windmill toy and a trendy town (French, "dans le vent", literally, "in the wind").
The paintbrush design of the arrows evoke the artists who spread Saint-Gabriel's culture all over the world.

The logo as a whole evokes the two most significant tourism seasons, a snowflake for winter and a sun for simmer.
The blue color, which highlights the importance of wonderful Lake Maskinongé for the environment, is universally associated with truth, balance, generosity and creativity.
The green color is a symbol of hope, renewal, harmony and calm; the color is also totally inseparable from the move towards sustainable governance. In the logo, the green color also recalls the forest and rural environment of the town.
