Millions of people with Irish heritage across the globe today celebrate St. Patrick's Day. The country's patron saint introduced Christianity to Ireland around 432 CE, and his passing on March 17, 461 CE, became a day of commemoration in his homeland.
The holiday holds cultural significance in Canada especially in cities where people who claim Irish ancestry reside like, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Quebec. The country's first St. Patrick's Day parade was held in 1824 in Montreal. The modern celebration typically includes parades, traditional Irish music and dance performances, wearing green clothes and indulging in Irish cuisine and beverages.

This is my font that was glyphs
This is a clone of Electric datasick of kerning fonts, so i decided to make one i dont need to/cant really kern anyways :3 had to make some letters a lil different from normal in order for them to look together, but i think it looks pretty nice! and if theres a little bit of off spacing, well...i think thats okay
DALLIANCE GROTESK — Geometric gothic grotesque
═══════════════════════════════════
Dalliance Grotesk is a solid sans-serif lettering concept that builds on the ‘core’-lettering concept of frongile's amazing work called Liaison Grotesk
Liaison is a renegade take on the gothic grotesque sans-serif style. A wonderful mix of early egyptian styles that get blended with subtle neo-grotesque hints, held firmly together by a rigid condensed geometric letter-backbone. The crude design of Liaison provides a very distinctive and unpolished appearance, that breaths a lot of visual character.
Its geometric quirkiness and rather irregular letter widths, just the slight imperfect overall lettering simply came together perfectly in frongile's original design. Making this a text-book example as for whyback in the day this style became known as ‘Grotesque’.
Yes, Ugly.. Obnoxious.. and... ‘Always in your face’
— Exactly how we like them best...
Dalliance Grotesk is the result of harvesting some of that original soul personality as was seen in Liaison and borrows it for extrapolation into a different font.
While Dalliance tried to preserve much of the overall letter-backbone structures from the original source, its primary aim was, to push towards a more polished finishing touch.
Simplified letters that were stripped of most quirks and bits, keeping only their rough shape intact.
In addition, all curved letter-parts were fully re-build with smoother contours and more natural flowing curve transitions. The spurred top and bottom stroke-stops for the lower-case letters had been changed so that the top now slightly differ from the bottom spurs (different tapered angle). Also the top spurs all have been slightly lowered to make them sit a tad bit bellow the x-height of the font.
Main modification revolved more or less around achieving cleaner overall text rendering and better optimization for body copy in small point sizes. In the process of getting there, I carefully adapted each glyph equipped fit, to appropriately accommodate all the ty(pro)graphic goodness one can possibly hope to pull out of a Fontstruct.
Smooth (near)-Bézier contour quality, optical compensating correction adjustments, such as overshoots, small vertical stressed contrast and improved stroke joints. Also the font's proportions for height to weight ratio has drastically changed.
— Utilizing sort-of an attenuate 'knockoff' to frongile's original concept for his Liaison Grotesk.
I would like to thank him for allowing me to harvest the basis of his lettering-concept and letting me re-use that as the stylistic back-bone in the creation of my own font.
