The Paradise Town Crest was designed by the late Mr. Archibald Janes of Paradise in the 1980s. It includes various historical elements that hold significance to modern day Paradise. Below is a brief description of the importance and meaning of each element.
- The animal on the top of the crest is a Caribou, which is our Provincial and at one time before Confederation our national animal.
- The crest is supported by two Bull Dogs representing the protectorate of Great Britain that we were for nearly four hundred years. The Bull Dogs are symbolic of the Royal British Navy.
- The crest itself is divided into four sections by a Cross. This represents the Christian belief on which our laws are founded.
- In the upper left corner of the crest as you face it, there is a gear, and in the upper right corner there is an electric bolt. These are symbols of today's industries in the Town. -
- The lower left corner bears a tree. This is the symbol for the Town's name Paradise which originated in the Greek language and means a park.
- In the lower right corner is a sled loaded with wood. This is the symbol of our past industry which was mainly wood products.
