Did you know that?

It was in 1907 that Mrs. Lillian Crewe Walsh of Glace Bay in Cape Breton wrote a poem in praise of Cape Breton. In 1957, Mrs. Walsh's poem, The Lady of the Trade, inspired Mrs. Lizzie Bell Grant to weave the colors of Cape Breton tartan. The gray represents the steel of Cape Breton, the green the high mountains, valleys and fields and gold for the sunsets that reflect on the lakes of Bras d´Or.
