If you're going to make fun, then do it right.

The Queen's Own Rifles of Canada
The Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders of Canada
The Governor General Foot Guards
Royal Regina Rifles - REGINA, NOT VIRGINA
British Columbia Regiment (Duke of Connaught's Own)
Canadian Scottish Regiment (Princess Mary's)
Governor's General's Horse Guards
Queen's York Rangers (1st American Regiment) - must really bug you that we still have an American Regiment.
Princess of Wales Own Regiment - I actually met Princess Di when she presented the Regiment's Colours - well, the usual "I'm fine, Your Royal Highness. From Ottawa, Your Royal Highness. Thank You very much, Your Royal Highness."
Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment
Prince Louise Fusiliers
8th Canadian Hussars (Princess Louise's)
