Prince Rupert Council Unanimously Selects New
Municipal Flag After Old Flag Became Outdated
Masao Okazaki, 13
October 2023
The city of Prince Rupert adopted a rebranding “City of Rainbows” logo by
Ts’msyen designer Russell Mather in spring 2022. The logo includes a rainbow as
a natural phenomenon that represents diversity, wealth, and inclusion and is the
optimistic following of a storm in what is known as the rainiest city in Canada.
In 2023, the city decided to have in-house staff design a new flag based on the
logo. The first 4 designs presented to the city council occasionally followed
NAVA’s “Good Flag, Bad Flag” guidelines and could include elements of the logo,
the town’s name, and mountains at the mouth of the Skeena River. However, the
city council wanted the flag to include the city’s and were presented with 3
additional designs. The new flag was chosen and adopted on October 10, 2023.

Based on this photograph, the flag is
blue with a yellow-edged wave pitching toward the hoist, the tip of which
is overlain by the shield with the name in red along the hoist margin of the
shield.
