The ''' |
The tinctures '''azure''' and '''argent''' represent Greece and the paternal line of Pantelis Kassotis, while the three '''maple leaves argent''' represent his maternal line and the fact that he’s a third generation Canadian citizen. The two '''crescents or''' represent the fact that he's a second son. The mountain-like geometry of the lower escutcheon represents the struggles of life and the '''star or''' represents hope. The crest and compartment represent the mountains and lakes of Canada while the supporters represent Greece and the Aegean sea. The crest contains a dual meaning. Aside from the mountains of Canada it also represents the struggles of life and the dawning sun behind it represents hope. A beacon of light that shines away the darkness of night. It symbolizes the struggles that brought his family to Canada and the hope that came with their journey. The motto "A Mari Usque Ad Mare " means "From Sea to Sea". |

The '''motto''' "A Mari Usque Ad Mare " means "From Sea to Sea". As a Canadian citizen, Pantelis chose the official motto of Canada for his arms because it represents his connection to both Greece and Canada and encapsulates his family history (from sea to sea). |
