The coat of arms of Sudbury is the heraldic symbol representing the city of Sudbury.
The green colour is symbolic of growth and the environment. The gold can represent the mineral riches of the region and spirit of community.
The star indicates the north star and that the city is the main urban center of northeastern Ontario. It can symbolize dynamism, technology and the future as well. The mural crown is a traditional symbol of municipal authority, representing the city's responsibility to protect its citizens. The pine cones make a second reference to the natural heritage of the area, and hint Sudbury's previous name : Sainte-Anne-des-Pins.
The moose are animals symbolic of Northern Ontario as this is where Sudbury is located. The rocky compartement, itself representative of the strong and enduring principles on which the Sudburian community has been assembled, indicates the importance of mining in the area, and the blueberries suggest the local vegetation. The coronets represent the diverse Canadian and francophone heritage of the city.
The motto is adapted from the book of Nehemiah "Come and let us build together". In the passage, Nehemiah was asked by God to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem whom were crumbled. After appraising the damage, Nehemiah appreciated the job could not be made by him only, but by the Jerusalem citizens helping him with the reconstruction. It has been said that Nehemiah was the first to practice inclusion. The motto would serve to recognize that building a community is a never ending task that citizens must contribute and continue. This motto is also a recognition of all those who have settled and built the Sudbury community we have inherited through their efforts. [1]
