rdf:langString Canadian-Scottish regiments are regiments in the Canadian Army that maintain the traditions and style of dress used by Scottish regiments. Although these units maintain Scottish dress and traditions, recruitment for these units is open to all Canadians. "Lord Dundonald, Speaking at the annual gathering of the Scottish Clans Association in London, said that while commanding the forces in Canada he had succeeded in changing the uniforms of several regiments, and dressing them in the Highland garb. Lord Dundonald is Closely associated with the Clan Mackinnon, his mother being a native of that clan." Inverness Courier - Friday 30 November 1906 The Canadian Army maintains sixteen Canadian-Scottish infantry regiments, and one Canadian-Scottish artillery regiment. All Canadian-Scottish infantry regiments form a part of the Canadian Army Reserve. In addition to active units, there also exists one Canadian-Scottish regiment in the Canadian Army's Supplementary Order of Battle.
