Northwest Territories
Territorial Tartan
The Tartan of the Northwest Territories includes many of the colors of the North - the white of the snow, the green of the forest, the yellow of the birches in fall and the blue of the lakes, rivers and oceans.
The idea of the tartan was proposed by Janet Anderson-Thomson, a long-time resident of the Northwest Territories and of Yellowknife. Upon her suggestion, research was carried out and an original design was developed and produced by the firm of Hugh MacPherson (Scotland) Limited of Edinburgh, the leading designer of tartans in the world. The tartan is registered at the Court of the Lord Lyon, King of Arms of Scotland, and anyone may wear it.
