The Colour, historically and symbolically, represent the heart and spirit of the Regiment. On the Regimental Colour are carried the battle honours of the Regiment, which recall past deeds and services. The Colours, emblazoned with distinctions for gallant service create a feeling of pride and loyalty in the soldier and most certainly in the hearts of all Patricias.

The Original Colour, The Ric-a-Dam-Doo,  was hand-made by Princess Patricia and presented to the Regiment on the 23th of August, 1914. As it was a camp colour, it was carried in action by the Regiment throughout the First World War. On 28 January 1919, it was formally consecrated and became the Regimental Colour.

A replica of the Original Colour and silk Union Jack as a King's Colour were presented in 1922 and were laid up in 1934 in All Saint's Church, Winnipeg, when officially approved Regimental and King's Colours were presented.

These new Colours, of which the Regimental Colour bore ten battle honours from the First World War, were carried by the Regiment and subsequently First Battalion until 1959, when they were laid up in St. Paul's Church, Esquimalt.

Colours were first presented to the Second Battalion in 1953 and new Colours were presented to First Battalion in 1959. These new Regimental Colours bore the twenty-two major battle honours of both World Wars and Korea.
