Congratulations on finishing up the project. I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures1
Aas for Canada.
My former boss, many years ago, named Francois Malouin, and an avid hockey player and rabid fan, once said that the quickest way to start a revolution in Canada would be to shut down hockey.

Oh man, I may not be the biggest Maple Leaf fan but come on.
Hockey is way more exciting than Baseball.

No it isn't. Baseball is a sport for wee nancy-boys. Hockey is a sport played by men and really tough chicks. What sort of sport puts a perfectly good piece of wood in your hands and doesn't let you hit anyone with it? Even cricket let's the batsmen carry their bats while they run.

I thought the Canadians already had a ball team. Did they finally do away with the Expos?

The Expos moved to Washington DC as the Nationals.
There's still the Toronto Blue Jays...

Hey; I'm a Scot on my Mom's side - if Quebec is going for free, I'll take it......! It will look nice here in Los Angeles, add a bit of class.

Always to be some question where Frugal Corner's kilts are concerned. I know that they are not cotton and I know that they are not wool; I have four of them: Black Stewart, Hunting Stewart, Scotish national, and Irish Green. They are polyviscose or whatever that is; the heft of the material is substantial, the pleating is very well done, they press back up very nicely after an all day Weding or Funeral event and they show themselves quite nicely in the evening for formal wear occasions. The hems are selvidge and substantial; the belting is substantial though not finished, cosmetically. Orders to be sure can some times take a bit at times but when compared to some kilt makers is quite quick. As a Piper and Drum Major I am in a kilt three to four days a week; they do quite well. The object here is to wear the kilt, not if the the kilt is made absolutely according to the "auld" traditions, fo the reality is that all of those "auld" crofters would have killed for a kilt made quickly and readily as it would have afforded them protection from the elements as well as natural camouflage cover when hunting game or Englishmen. The average layman [read here as not being Irish or Scot] knows not the difference, could care less and will compliment you readily if they see a kilt smartly and proudly worn.
