Identity in the Scottish Diaspora

[Taskr]

Not going to argue the point, Nathan, but your description in paragraphs 2 and 3 was not mine growing up in Inverness county over 4 decades ago. The Scot culture was practically everywhere - language, music, dance, pipes, concerts, the occasional kilt just out for the day. Gaelic was taught in my elementary school. Nova Scotia, and especially our little part of Cape Breton didn't seem subjected as you describe elsewhere. Just a different era, I guess.

Will add, though, that the Scot culture in NS would not have been the only one subjugated. Changing times. And changing again. Mostly for the good of diversity.
