Is it the same type of holiday as american thanksgiving…like the natives and the pilgrims…or is it totally diff?

Long before Europeans settled in North America, festivals of thanks and celebrations of harvest took place in Europe in the month of October. The very first Thanksgiving celebration in North America took place in Canada when Martin Frobisher, an explorer from England, arrived in Newfoundland in 1578

Thanksgiving (French: Action de grâce), or Thanksgiving Day (Jour de l’action de grâce) is an annual Canadian holiday, occurring on the second Monday in October, which celebrates the harvest and other blessings of the past year.

We spend the day being thankful we’re not Yankees like flameoftherhump. :wink:

Happy turkey day. I know some yanks hear this on theirs. Is it relevant for Canada?

Yeah, we should be celebrating National Chinese day in the U.S. since they actually discovered America first. The darnn vikings were latecomers too.

oooh I would prefer sweet and sour shrimp over turkey :stuck_out_tongue:
