Summary

The way of life and attitudes of Scottish emigrants in Canada.

The contributor explains what life was like for emigrants from Scotland who came to Canada. He believes that the community was much more integrated, and attached to Scotland, before the war. After the war, there were fewer cèilidhs, dances and concerts. People used to visit each other regularly and keep up to date with the news from Scotland.
