Coat of Arms of Toronto - Former Coat of Arms

Former Coat of Arms

The chain of office of the Mayor of Toronto includes the coats of arms of all prior municipalities, including the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto.

Only the coats of arms for the current City of Toronto and the former City of Scarborough are registered in the Canadian Heraldic Authority's Public Register of Arms, Flags and Badges of Canada. The former city of York is the only former municipality in Metropolitan Toronto to have a motto in Latin, while the other municipalities were in English.

    If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also; and from anyone who takes away your coat do not withhold even your shirt.

    each day a new excursion.

    our lives once more perfected
    and unused.
