The Canadian Scottish Regiment (Princess Mary's)

A saltire Argent surmounted by a scroll above an annulus fracted in fess all Azure edged and inscribed THE CANADIAN SCOTTISH in letters Or, ensigned by the Royal Crown, environed by a wreath of sixteen autumnal maple leaves proper, and surmounted in base by a scroll Azure fimbriated and inscribed with the Motto in letters Or;

The sixteen maple leaves are a reference to the service of the 16th Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. The maple leaves represent service to Canada, and the crown, service to the Sovereign. The saltire or cross of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland, is a common device among badges of highland infantry regiments. The words “THE CANADIAN SCOTTISH” are a form of the regimental title and “DEAS GU CATH” is the motto of the regiment.
