According to the resolution,
the flag is rectangular in shape and composed of
vertical sections; wider, the central part is white and bears the emblem of the
MRC (badge of the official logo) as well as the words “La Matanie”; the narrow
bands at the hoist and the fly are green to remind the importance of agriculture
and forestry in the development of La Matanie; in the upper hoist, a white
fleur-de-lys recalls the French origins and the fact that the Matanie population
belongs to Québec.
