The Meaning Behind The Logo:
The two triangles represent the merging of two cultures that when put together radiates a unique energy that brings out the best in both worlds.
Red represents Canada and Blue represents the Philippines. The red color of Canada further enhances the Philippine identity, and consistent with its value for a mosaic culture, it does not assimilate the heritage of its immigrants, but rather enhances its identity.
The maple leaf is a central symbol for the nation of Canada, as represented on its flag.
The “rays” unifies the two seemingly separate triangles – becoming one yet preserving the distinct nature of Filipino-Canadians. The colour yellow represents the sun, which is on the Filipino flag.
The "eight rays” represents the limitless potential of what a Filipino-Canadian can contribute to their community - eight (8) being a symbol of infinity.
The two helping hands symbolize programs and services that support Filipino-Canadians by mobilizing their talents and resources.
The two circles surrounding the triangles represent the Filipino-Canadian community supporting one another through unique challenges they face and celebrating their successes together.
PCC is confident and trusts in the talent and good will of Filipino-Canadians in contributing to a better Canada.
