Description of the flag

Flag of the former Town of Glace Bay, Nova Scotia [now part of Cape Breton Regional Municipality]
From: http://www.seaside.ns.ca/~gbhms/history.html:
Glace Bay's Flag
The Crest of the town of Glace Bay depicts the signs and symbols of the fishing and mining; the historic and founding industries of the town. The Crest bears the towns colours blue (for the ocean) and black (for the coal). The motto inscribed in Latin is Ex Fundo Maris et Terrae (translated as: from the depths of the sea and the earth). The small train symbolizes Glace Bay's pivotal position as the center of the Sydney & Louisbourg Railway.
