I don't think National Dress is revevant to anything I have stated, and I just don't remember what the "official line" was when I was in Ottawa. "National Dress" is an euphemism for "Ethnic Costume," and certainly in Canada the wearing of the kilt was never considered "ethnic" per se!

Those of Scottish descent are lucky to have options, whereas the sassenach is restricted to a tail coat and white tie!
