Canadiana Winter Wear: Canadian Pacific Travel Posters

Canadian Pacific has done more for the Canuck identity than I can even comprehend.

It has been snowing for a solid 24 hours, and, as they say, it doesn't show signs of stopping.

More than dreaming of a White Christmas, I'm hoping for a Ski-coloured Boxing Day at Kissing Bridge.

The Plan: Fjällräven Crinan Jacket

In search of a parka that suits both the maple bush and ski slope. Fjällräven's Crinan Jacket fits the bill.

Autumn is in full swing, which means it's time for me to pull out my Doctor Who scarf. Although mine is only 8 ft long, and is missing the blue stripes, it has been a staple in my fall wardrobe since university.

The Plan: Red Canoe - Ontario Tartan Merino Scarf

I've been researching Canadian-made apparel, and stumbled upon this 100% Merino Wool scarf from Red Canoe in the Province of Ontario official tartan.

From the Red Canoe website:

"National Heritage Brands 100% Merino Wool Tartan Scarves are proudly woven and manufactured in Canada. Each province in Canada has its own unique tartan that is a classic statement of our proud heritage.

Ontario

Ontario got its name from the Iroquois word, "Kanadario" meaning, "sparkling water." One sixth of the province is covered by pure, freshwater lakes and rivers – 177 390 km2! This is the most populated province in Canada with over 10 million people. Ontario’s capital Toronto is the largest city in Canada and a major industrial center. The Nation’s Capital Ottawa is also in Ontario. The further North one travels, the cleaner the lakes, more abundant the wildlife and fewer the people. Just watch out for moose on the road!"

Other provinces are available too, I am especially fond of Newfoundland (sans Labrador):

My Filson Mackinaw wool vest came in the mail today. I fell in love with it as soon as I got it out of the box. Unfortunately it fit too large, so I'm going to have to swap it for a size smaller.

I'm usually a size medium, but I like my vests to fit a bit snug, so I went a size down. Now I'm looking at the XS, which I predict will be perfect. :)
