North of the Border in Canada (also released as Collages) is an album by The Ron Collier Orchestra performing music by Canadian composers, with American pianist Duke Ellington as the featured soloist, which was recorded in Toronto in 1967 and released on Decca label.
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "None of the complex suitelike originals are particularly memorable, and the arrangements for the orchestra (two of the pieces utilize a string section) are reasonably colorful, but not too distinctive. Purely for Duke Ellington completists".
