The maple tree represents Canadian society, with its leaves indicating a flourishing of new growth. The trunk of the tree, composed of the interlocking shapes in gold and blue, repeats the symbolism of the shield and recalls the goal of working together. Its roots symbolize the strength and supporting work of the RHF.
