Crest
The Canadian Heraldic Authority does not have confirmed symbolism for this emblem. The following comments are hypotheses only. The paschal lamb holding a banner of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland, is likely taken from the arms of the city of Perth, in Scotland, where the Dewar family originates. The lamb is a symbol of St. John the Baptist, the patron of the city.
Motto
This Scots phrase means "Only God and the King".
