The logo was designed in 1983 by Maurice Lalonde, winner of a contest
organized by the municipality. The flag was unveiled on 2 June 1983.
The
green stripes form letters "SSK", for "Saint-Stanislas-de-Kostka". Their
elongated, rectilinear shapes refer to the plot design and to agriculture, which
is the municipality's main activity. The slanted rectangles pointing upwards
highlight the municipality's dynamism.
The blue triangles represent waves,
evoking the Saint-Lawrence and Lake Saint-François.
The yellow triangular
shape above the waves represents a sailboat. Lake Saint-François is indeed one
of Quebec's best place for water sports. Yellow recalls the sun and summer, when
the municipality experience a demographic boom.
