I know you can get the Maple Leaf in Scotland too if course!
But for me it meant more to have it made in Canada because it was a Canadian tartan just as I prefer to have my Scottish tartans made in Scotland.
I take both your points, Trefor.........
If Robin is able to source some of the the Dutch friendship that we both drool about I would not have it made in the Netherlands because he cannot recommend a good Dutch kiltmaker and would then feel free to make a choice of where to have it made up.
......... and I am with you on that! I have already made up my mind who I will ask to make mine up - assuming our good friend can lay his hands on the tartan for us - and, Trefor, it is unlikely to be the kiltmaker you might expect me to use. More than that I am not saying!! 
Take care,
Ham.
