Is it because men from Nova Scotia are born wearing gaudy golf trousers and a dodgy polo shirt/blazer combo? They're almost clones of each other!

Cape Bretoner here -- an excellent and entertaining history lesson Bruce. Will be visiting Scotland next month and will make another trip to see "Nova Scotia' land at Edinburgh Castle. We have kept up many of the traditions this side of the Atlantic so even after a rough start, this part of Canada did live up to its name. Did you know that one-third of European settlers in Canada have Scottish roots? Moran taing!

You really are a top class historian. nobody would ever nod off during your lessons.

Being from Cape Breton Island you feel the Scottish roots. From the Gaelic college, to music, Celtics colours festival, the highland games and the Cape Breton tartan.

Scotiabank is too big. Nationwide. They only follow common policy.

In the 19th century many of my Grandmother's family from North Uist emigrated to Nova Scotia. Mainly a place called Glace Bay where some worked in a coal mine possibly owned by MacDonalds of Sleat but I'm not sure about that. They also had a change of name from Laing to Lynk on arrival. As you will know Laing is pronounced Leng in Scotland and as they would be Gaelic speakers Leng to Lynk is easy to understand.

That's where I'm from, born and raised. The coal mines were huge when I was growing up, then they shut down and everyone including myself got hooked on pills. Glace Bay will forever be know now as Cotton land, named after Oxycontin.

What a coincidence. I was just wondering how Nova Scotia got its name. My hubby and I went there on our 25 anniversary 10 years ago and it was so beautiful. I hope to go back there someday when we have a little more time. Interesting to see the graves of some of the Titanic victims in a Halifax cemetery. Thanks for the informative video.

I'm in Savannah and they recently had the yearly Scottish games here. One of the societies was presenting info on the history of how the indentured Scots brought to Georgia and South Carolina later settled further West in Georgia and down into Florida. I would imagine quite a bit of the history of your area ties into that.

Ah Bruce, I've followed several other history vlogs attempting to grasp events in Nova Scotia (for both my French Canadian and Scottish ancestors), but this entry did the best (and most hilarious) job of tying it all together. Thank you!

nova scotian here, its so nice hearing about our history from over the pond! be sure to get yourself a donair and some local brews while in halifax!

Thank you Bruce for another fascinating tidbit on Scottish/Canadian history!

Hope you enjoyed our side of the pond....Scots heritage on both sides, from Haliburton Highlands, Ontario. Scotland runs deep...so deep in fact we have a regiment from the Plains called the Calgary Highlanders...go figure that one...

For all you lovers of traditional Scottish music as well as rock, pop and punk, do yourself a big fat favour and seek out the album "Hi, How Are You Today" by the great Ashley MacIsaac and his atomic fiddle. Released in 1995, it's a masterpiece of Celtic punk. One of the greatest Canadian albums of all time that no one talks about anymore. Brilliantly performed and produced. Cheers.

Much love from Nova Scotia, this video is great! ❤ @ScotlandHistoryTours A little tidbit I think you’d enjoy knowing is how NS and Scotland are coincidentally connected geologically too! Near Hantsport, Nova Scotia is a place called Blue Beach which is a cool fossil hunting spot. These fossils are from a period in time when aquatic animals were just making their way on to land for the first time mostly in invertebrate form, and the only other place in the world to have these fossils are in, you guessed it, Scotland. :-)

Layers added to layers in increasing complexity. Love your videos, Bruce, and the King moving to London for work is priceless. All the best with your Canadian tour 🌞

Champlains' first winter in the New World was on Deer Island, St Andrews New Brunswick. It didn't go well, so they relocated to Annapolis(named after Queen Anne of France, or Anne of Austria as she is often referred to). Many of the evicted Acadians never made it to New Orleans. They had set sail late in the season and storms made some ships put in on the New England shoreline. The Acadians were moved to shore and held in awful conditions and/or used as slave labour.

I enjoy your videos normally, but as a Canadian, this bit of history was right up my alley.

As Canadian of scottish ancestry, that Acadian Cajun connection was a mind blown moment.

My son now lives in Halifax. He had a seasonal job at the Citadel when he first arrived. We visited last summer.

My mother's family were from Cape Breton. Henwoods and MacIntoshes. My father's family moved there from Newfoundland when he was young. I spent many summers swimming in the Atlantic, jigging and gathering mussels when I was a boy. I was born and raised in Greater Halifax. And, of course, I have Mi'kmaq blood mixed in with the Scottish and Irish. My native ancestor secured treaty rights for me when he helped the British burn down the White House in 1812. Bagpipes and kilts and caber tosses were a regular part of my life growing up. I haven't been back to Nova Scotia in ten year now. I miss it sometimes.

So you've finally arrived here in Canada. I did hear something in the wind and a shake of the earth over here on the other side, the "Wet Coast". Glad you made it, and see you when you get here in BC.

Thank you, Bruce! I did a long translation on this very topic and you provided a lot of interesting detail. Beautiful country indeed. Have a wonderful time!

I' a third Scots, in family heritage. I've visited The Canadian Maratimes three times -as a child in 1972 and '73 (born in 1969, we lived in Baltimore, MD then) -very vivid memories of the family trip; my Dad's Kodachrome slides help with the memory (scanned his slides, made a photo-book). Later, after college, I was up in Maine for a while in 1993. at a Photography school on the coast. I drove around the Maritimes, as a 24 year old adult during a week -even ferry to Newfoundland. The French fort of St. Lousibourg, east coast of NS was memorable to me as a child. There was a "gargoyle" at one of the gates of the fort. This Gargoyle scared me as a four year old. When I went back 20 years later, I found it was the Coat of Armes, of the French Kings,....perception! I can compare the sulpture at the gate, from my Dad's photos, to mine, same location. We visited Port Royal, the Celtic language school, Halifax, etc -went back with adult eyes. The weather, and landscape are similar to Scotland; similar latitude. Many Canadians had Scots heritage. I recall a WW1 memorial with sculpture of a Canadian Soldier, in kilt, for the dead servicemen of the region. I'll look forward to your other videos,
