Yes, we are. Perhaps the appointing of the tartan a bit of a parting gift from the current GG.
The STA still has this note from the Du Lion origin in 2013: A fashion tartan representing the heraldic lion rampant: a red lion, often with a blue tongue and claws, on a yellow background, standing erect in profile with fore-paws raised. This tartan was created to celebrate the designer's meeting with Canada's Heralds of Arms and the principal artist of the Canadian Heraldic Authority in Ottawa in June 2013. The Lion Rampant appears in the second section of the shield in the Canadian coat of arms http://www.tartansauthority.com/tart.../10905/du-lion
