Canada Day is celebrated annually on July 1st to
commemorate the beginning of the process of political
independence in 1867. Many holidays are shared with the
United States and celebrated as in that country, the most
popular being Halloween and Thanksgiving Day. Thanks.
February 21:
Family Day.
This is one of those Canadian holidays celebrated only in
a few provinces. In other provinces it is also a public
holiday on that day, but it is celebrated for another
reason.
The provinces that celebrate this date are:
British Columbia;
Ontario, Alberta;
New Brunswick
And Saskatchewan.
Those that celebrate on the same day, but for different
reasons, are:
Manitoba
Nova Scotia
AND PEI.
May 23: Victoria's
Day (Queen
Victoria's Day)
Celebrated across the country, and only in Canada, Victoria's Day is another well-
known Canadian holiday.
In Quebec, this same holiday is celebrated, but with a different name: “National
Patriotes Day” (in French: Journée nationale des patriotes).
This holiday in Canada honors Queen Victoria, who was one of the most important
English monarchs, dating back to the height of the English colonial period, when
they were the greatest overseas power in the world.
In fact, to this day the Queen of England remains the Queen of Canada, did you
know? For these and other reasons, you can understand the meaning of a holiday
like this.
July 1st: Canada Day
Is the perfect opportunity to wear red and white and
celebrate in different locations, making it the biggest
celebration in the country.
Several Canadian cities usually celebrate with events on
this important day. In Ottawa, for example, an
unforgettable fireworks display is always held.
