The Canadian Heraldic Authority does not have confirmed symbolism for this emblem. The following comments are hypotheses only. The pears make a canting reference to Dr. Perry’s name. The triangular shapes reminiscent of teeth allude to his occupation as a dentist. They form a letter “W”, alluding to the City of Windsor, which he served as an alderman. The tower could refer to Dr. Perry’s particular interest in community housing.
