The Scots Fusiliers of Canada
They were amalgamated with The Highland Light Infantry of Canada shortly after "The Regiments and Corps of the Canadian Army" was published to form The Highland Fusiliers of Canada (later "The Royal"), around end 1964/beginning 1965. Thus it would seem that their name always included the prefix "The." In fact, most Canadian regiments have "The" as a prefix in their name. Exceptions include numbered cavalry regiments, Lord Strathcona's Horse, Royal 22e Régiment, Victoria Rifles of Canada, and Irish Fusiliers of Canada, to name a few examples.
