The flag of the City of Quesnel, British Columbia, consists of city logo
on a yellow background.
"Our logo contains images that have significance
to our City. On the left, the Cornish Waterwheel, used by the gold miners
during the 1870s Gold Rush accompanies the miner's gold pan. Mining still
has importance to our economy. Forestry is represented by the trees behind
the waterwheel and the log truck on the roadway. The Cariboo Mountains in
the distance with a lake at their base depict the abundance of outdoor
recreation in and around our city. Look closely and you will see a boat. The
bottom of the logo is dotted with flowers of which Quesnel has millions in
our parks, gardens and lining our streets." Image of the flag and
information thanks to Matt Wood, Communications Supervisor.
