    My general experience is that Canadians in my part of the nation have sufficient Scottish presence, heritage, and pride that it's considered neither unusual nor odd.
    Yes, your mileage obviously varies! In areas where there's more of an established immigrant Scot culture, it may be more normal to see a Balmoral. Everyone has to get a sense of the culture around them and decide for themselves.
