The flag of the Town of Lac du Bonnet, Manitoba, consists of three vertical
stripes green-white-green, where the white stripe is much wider. On the white
field is positioned a trapezoid (?) device with town logo-like image, all in
green.

Lac du Bonnet is a town located along the shores of the Winnipeg River
approximately 115 kilometres northeast of Winnipeg.
The lake (which is
just a wide portion of the Winnipeg River) after which the town takes its name
was named by the explorer/fur trader Pierre Gaultier La Verendrye circa 1730s.
The flag is a Green-White-Green triband. In the centre lies a geometric
shape housing a silhouette of a building, trees, and waves, as well as a float
plane (float places operate out of Lac du Bonnet and this town was the location
of Manitoba's first airmail flight). Under the silhouette is the town's name.
