Communauté Urbaine de Montréal

This entity ceased to exist in 2002 when the island's municipalities were merged into a single Montréal. The website shows a white logo on a blue background, but there was also a version with the inversed colors and the name. The logo itself symbolized the following: "The beehive cell was for collective work, bringing efforts together. The star was for light, dynamism, excellence, prestige. The two elements, the star and beehive cell are thus associated, resulting in a super imposed grid on the islands. An image appears from this stylization, and the image becomes a symbol." The logo was approved December 5, 1979.
