Gatineau Police have decided to revert to their original logo after concerns were raised about the origin of a bird graphic featured in the new design. The logo, unveiled recently, included a stylized bird, a darker blue crest, and gold-coloured borders.
The decision to revert comes after public scrutiny and questions regarding the symbolism and source of the bird image. Police officials have not provided detailed reasons for the change but emphasized the importance of community trust and transparency.
The original logo will be reinstated immediately, and the department will review its branding process to ensure future designs align with community values. The controversy highlights the sensitivity around police symbolism and public perception.
