Symbolism: Blue and white are corporate colours of the Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority. The narrow interlaced bands represent the many routes, both land and water, guarded by the Service, and the gold border symbolizes the boundaries of the area in which it operates. The blue discs on the border symbolize wheels in motion, with the related idea that the Service is always on the move. They also refer to the many communities that are served and protected by the Service.

Vol. IV, p. 289
Description: A banner of the Arms; Coat of arms: Azure within an annulus a griffin segreant Argent;
Symbolism: Blue and white are the historic colours of the Institute. A single circle is representative of the work of the Justice Institute in several ways: the circle of justice, including the use of the circle when practicing restorative justice; the circle of response to personal or natural crises by all of the agencies represented at the Justice Institute; and the unity of approach by, and collaboration within, the Justice Institute. It also represents community and the Institute's connection to the communities it serves. Since classical times, the griffin has been a symbol of justice, and so it represents the purpose of the Justice Institute and its components, which provide education and training in the areas of study of justice and public safety. Its blend of the features of the eagle and lion alludes to the Institute's focus on multi-agency responses.
