It's similar to Fraser Highlanders (Military) - see #6943 in the Master Db where the notes state:
From Brunetts & Struth (Lochcarron) in Canada who believe it is a modern versions of the 78th Fraser tartan which was sold as kiots to the band by the British Shop in Buffalo or TartanTown in Vancouver.
The difference brtween the two is that #6943 has a red stripe centred on the green whereas it's blue or black in the material in the pictures.
I suspect that this is another attempt/version to reproduce the original 78th sett.
