LONDON

Province : Ontario

Official blazon

Origin/meaning

The arms refer to the agricultural nature of the surrounding territory. The motto may be freely translated as "Through Labour and Perseverance". The locomotive in the crest refers to the rapid development of the community and the bear and stag forming the supporters indicate the zoology of the area in the early days.
