Thanksgiving (Canada)
Annual holiday in October
Thanksgiving (Canada)
Thanksgiving or Thanksgiving Day, is an annual Canadian holiday held on the second Monday in October. Outside the country, it may be referred to as Canadian Thanksgiving to distinguish it from the U.S. holiday of the same name and related celebrations in other regions. Thanksgiving has been officially celebrated as an annual holiday in Canada since November 6, 1879. While the date varied by year and was not fixed, it was commonly the second Monday in October. On January 31, 1957, the Governor General of Canada Vincent Massey issued a proclamation stating: "a day of general thanksgiving to Almighty God for the blessings with which the people of Canada have been favoured" for observance annually on the second Monday in October.
