Green flag with a local badge on the fly and the lettering "Town of Fort Smith" in black serif capitals across the bottom. This badge is coat-of-arms-like and can be blazoned as "argent, a wavy pale between two bison in chief each between two spruce all proper, over all and issuant from a base sable" something here I cannot blazon "a vol gules; wreath azure, vert and argent; as crest the bison of the arms."

Fort Smith, with a population of 2441 (as of 1996), was formerly called by the traditional name of Thebacha (meaning "beside the rapids"), is located at 60°00'N lat. and 111°53'W long., precisely on the NWT-Alberta border line. Local languages are Chipewyan, Cree and English, and the community belongs to the electoral district of Thebacha and to the land claim area of Treaty 8.
