Mount Pearl

The flag of Mount Pearl, Newfoundland and Labrador, is a white background with a half pastel blue saltire with the city’s extended coat of arms on the hoist side of the flag, where the saltire meets. There is a white border on the flag.
The flag was adopted officially at an unknown time but was designed by Robin Cook, an art teacher and graphic designer.
==Symbolism==
The lower section of the coat of arms depicts a visual concept of growth. The Fir Tree, chosen for its association with early enterprise in Mount Pearl, symbolizes industrial expansion. Its well groomed appearance, together with the stylized bright yellow sun, radiates pride and spirit of its residents. The outstretched branches reach in harmony with the sun depicting togetherness: a quality for which Mount Pearl is recognized.
The flag’s background, comprised of a partial saltire on white, is a part of the flag of Nova Scotia, the birthplace of Sir James Pearl, the founder of Mount Pearl.
