Scotland

Why not have a look at the Tourist Board's site as a starting point? You might pick up some ideas of things you would like to do, or places you might like to go. Visit Scotland I see there are also lots of little flags along the top, including a Canadian one. That takes you to a related site which probably has travel and tours specifically from Canada.

If you decided against an organised tour, yes travelling on your own is fairly easy particularly across the central belt, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling, and also between major cities.

If you have any specific queries, I'd be delighted to try and help.

It was back in 1980 or "81 that some friends and I went to England and drove up to Scotland. It is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. Gorgeous country, warm and welcoming people, and interesting places to visit. Aah, yes, I have very fond memories of Scotland. We stayed at B&B's there (but real ones, not like the resorts they have here). If you can go, I say do it, you will not be sorry.

I never been there but i have a Scottish Terrier does that count? LOL.

Anyways you should look at websites and traveling sites, take your time to learn a bit of history too.

I'm another one who wants to travel to the UK so badly but finances just won't permit it.

I was speaking to a coworker some time ago who travels back and forth regularly to visit family. She said to use Zoom Airlines as they are the cheapest. Now that was 3 years ago so I hope the same is true today. Also I'm not sure what cities in the Maritimes they fly out of.
