RCSCC MASSET-HAIDA*
Blazon: | Argent, a rocky mount in base proper, and overall a Haida Indian house post representing the eagle and cormorant totems of the Eagle Clan, also proper. |
Significance: | The corps is situated in the Queen Charlotte Islands, the cultural area of the Haida Indian tribe. The name "Masset" is derived from a Haida word meaning "an island in a bay" and is represented by the rocky island in the design. The "Haida" of the name is symbolized by the totem pole, typical of Haida Indian art. (The pole is a depiction of pole No. 15A at the village of Skedans, Queen Charlotte Islands). |
