<description><![CDATA[ (Aug 13, 2010) Scottish emigrants ended up in nearly every corner of the world, so highland games featuring all things Scottish have also become widespread.  A number of specialized vendors follow this busy summer circuit, bringing goods to throngs of their most likely customers.  At this year&apos;s Glengarry Highland Games in Maxville, Ontario one such booth included a compact tailor&apos;s shop.  Industrial sewing machines sat ready for serious stitching, with crisp fashion displays out front.  And what was on the manikins?  Kilts, of course.  But not Great-granddad&apos;s scratchy plaids. Innovator Robert Pel told Lucy Martin the always-evolving garment is going mainstream.

<description><![CDATA[ (Aug 5, 2010) There&apos;s no shortage of pipe and drum bands across Canada, in communities large and small. Sarah Forsyth pipes as a civilian volunteer with Ottawa&apos;s Air Command Pipes and Drums, the longest continuous serving Air Force Pipe Band in the Canadian Forces.  It&apos;s a major commitment. Roughly 40 members practice weekly and perform in parades or public events at home and abroad. Forsyth says the right band feels like a second family—that works hard and has fun together. Lucy Martin caught up with Forsyth at the famous Glengarry Highland games in Maxville, Ontario. Bagpipes fall into the love &apos;em or hate &apos;em category. The piper told Lucy she caught the bug when she was five.
