    Kilt skate Ottawa

    http://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-...nal-kilt-skate

    This morning, it was -23C, which made for excellent skating conditions on the Rideau Canal here in Ottawa, Canada. Although perhaps a bit nippy for some, the cold did not prevent a good turnout for the kilted skate in honour of the 200th birthday of Sir John A. Macdonald.

    The event was sponsored by the Scottish Society of Ottawa, many of whom no doubt watched from a warm pub nearby...

    I'm proud that the Sun decided to illuminate the day for all that braced the chill. Good job Canadians.
