Wellington North, Ontario
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Corporation of the Township of Wellington North was formed by the amalgamation of the Township of Arthur, Arthur Village, the Township of West Luther and the Town of Mount Forest, effective January 1, 1999.
The newly amalgamated community was named the Township of Wellington North on April 17, 1999.
The Township logo was designed by Reg Mason. The tree represents forested areas; the brickwork and shield are the foundation for the new area and within the shield is a buggy representing the Mennonite people. The church stands for freedom of religious choice and the Great Blue Heron represents the phantom of the marsh. The large toothed wheel stands for industry and the grain sheaths represent the agriculture of the area. The motto, Semper Porro is Latin for "Forever Forward".
