Thanksgiving in Canada

One holiday that we have in Canada is called Thanksgiving. Originally, Thanksgiving was a day to celebrate the harvest or to give thanks for good health after a war, such as after the Seven Years War in 1763. Today, families in Canada gather together every year on the second Monday of October to eat a very big meal and think about everything they are thankful for. Americans also have Thanksgiving, but it is celebrated in November.
