The Canadian Heraldic Authority does not have confirmed symbolism for this emblem. The following comments are hypotheses only. The rock, the hand holding a dagger and the lymphad are taken from the arms of the chief of the Scottish clan MacLean. The maple leaf alludes to Mr. MacLean’s Canadian identity, while the millrinds likely represent his great-great-grandfather, who was a miller in Scotland. The border is a Scottish method of differencing, the chequered variant indicating that Mr. MacLean’s grandfather was a third son, while the label signals that he is the heir to his father’s arms.
