On 27 May 1703, the French explorer Samuel de Champlain set up in Pointe-aux-Alouettes
an alliance with representative of three Amerindian nations: Montagnais,
Algonquin and Maliseet. The treaty allowed the French explorers to sail the
Saint Lawrence River and to settle its banks; this was the first step to the
establishment of the town of Quebec.
The municipal arms were designed
after the villagers' appealing character and the village's geographical
features.
The church, a sacred place, has a paramount role in the
municipality and is connected to every house. This link represents bond and
mutual aid between the villagers.
The municipality is located in a nice
environment, composed of a picturesque and enchanting landscape, a vast forest,
an outstanding beach, and not the least, superb watercourses, the majestic river
Saint-Lawrence. The massive presence of marine mammals embellishes the landscape
and makes happy every tourist visiting Baie-Sainte-Catherine.
The green
and blue colors represent a good balance between the forest and the sea, while
burgundy red, a warm color, personifies the wonderful, small village of Baie-Sainte-Catherine.
