Tartan Feature Part Two: Tartans of Canada

With Tartan Day quickly approaching in April, I thought I would add the second installment of the Tartan series I started in October which began with the Tartans of the USA post. But now it’s time for our northern neighbors, Canada!

Canada has an official national tartan called the ‘Maple Leaf ” tartan adopted in 2011, but there are also 13 additional tartans for each province and territory – some even have more than one tartan to choose from! Even though some have officially been adopted while others have not, that doesn’t mean you can’t show your Canadian regional or national pride!
