There have always been far more Gaelic speakers in Scotland than in Cape Breton, and still are.

There are currently more of them in Glasgow than in the rest of the world put together.

Cape Breton is home to an interesting *part* of Gaelic culture with some very significant music, but it doesn't need the mythology it's acquired in certain quarters.

Is Buddy Macmaster better than Farquhar Macrae was? Silly question. Both Gaels and not much alike.
