Description of the flag

The municipal flag of McLennan, Alberta (population 824) features a steam locomotive, maple leaf and a bird along with the motto: “Bird Capital of Canada”. Nearby Kimiwan Lake is recognized by the Alberta Province as an important waterfowl bird nesting and staging habitat for some 200 different species of birds. The steam locomotive commemorates the community’s early history as a major railway centre located 187 kilometers NE of the City of Grande Prairie.
