During recent years Alberta has used the following sequences of helmet designs:

Helmet design 'D' (used August 30, 2019 at Calgary) has a logo I have been unable to locate - the usual "bear face" with the addition of what appears to be a white "paw print" shape behind it (photographs below).

*1 The "A" logo is present on the left side only of this design; uniform numbers are worn on the right side (as represented below).
