A ban on buskers playing bagpipes on the streets of a Canadian city has been reversed.
Gregor Robertson, the mayor of Vancouver, said he would "certainly" not support the restriction through efforts to regulate noise levels.
The ban was overturned during a visit to the city by Fiona Hyslop, the Scottish culture and external affairs secretary.
