The municipality of Sainte-Anne-du-Sault (1,350 inhabitants) was founded in
Quebec in 1889. At that time, it included territories removed in 1902 to form
Canton of Maddington and Daveluyville.

The symbol was designed by Municipal Councillor Sara Mayrand-Dubois. The big letter A is made of a road (downstrokes) crossed by highway 20 (horizontal bar). The left downstroke is supported by a half cogwheel, symbolizing the opening to industrial development, whereas the right downstroke stretches out horizontally and supports three wheat spikes, recalling agriculture and tourism in Sainte-Anne. The blue colour recalls the sky, large spaces and water (River Bécancour), whereas the yellow colour recalls joy, liveliness and fervor.
The picture available in the source article shows the probable future flag of Sainte-Anne, a white flag with the symbol and Municipalité de / Sainte-Anne-du-Sault written on the right of the symbol.
