Brockville is located in the Thousand Islands region on the St. Lawrence
River in Leeds & Grenville County, (Eastern) Ontario, Canada.
Known as
the "City of the 1000 Islands", Brockville is located in Southern Ontario on the
north shore of the St. Lawrence River, directly opposite Morristown, New York,
about half-way between Cornwall in the east and Kingston in the west and a
little over an hour's drive south of the nation's capital, Ottawa. Brockville is
one of the oldest cities in Ontario and is named after the British general Sir
Isaac Brock. It has about 22.000 inhabitants.
Description of the city
flag:
A flag on a field Azure, two bars wavy Argent, between three beehives. In May of 1967, the City of Brockville passed a by-law
adopting the new Seal, the City of Brockville Flag, the Citizen's Flag and the
Mayor's Banner.

The flag used by the Mayor is the same as the city flag, but its dimensions
may vary depending by the occasion.
