remaining space. Off-centered to the hoist on the three strips
appears a radiating sun where appears a streamlined semblance of
the local landscape. The gray stripe remembers the Strength and
the Tenacity of the worker, fighter, vigorous and seasoned people
whom impels the Municipality development. The white stripe
alludes to to the spiritual greatness of the Cañaderian men and
women expressed through their Faith and Devotion by their matron
the Virgin Mary; on the one hand and by the other, remembers
their generosity, solidarity and brotherhood: virtues which with
the passage of time have allowed to give origin to the slogan
that characterizes the locality "Tierra de Amigos para hacer
Amigos" ("Land of Friends to make Friends"). The
blue stripe symbolizes the men and women example of the

historical facts on the Independence History of Venezuela; the
coconut palm places that delight the Cañaderian and the visitor,
