Subject: Why were there Canadian flags at the Queen City Feis?

Saw some friends' kids win at Queen City Feis in Cinci. They had Canadian, Irish and American flags behind the podium winners. Is Canada a big part of that particular feis?

Always been a part of ID in the US, especially in the northern near border states. Feis-ed in Eastern region in the 70's and 80's and every feis displayed US + Canadian + Irish flags. Often played Canadian national anthem as well.

We are in Windsor ON (Detroit neighbour) and compete in Mid America more than we do in Eastern Canada due to proximity. There are quite a few of us Canucks that visit your Feiseanna.
