If you work for the Federal Government.
Labour day, The Queen’s Memorial Day and Indigenous day. Including weekends, that’s 11 days off this month. Not great for national productivity but very good for family life.

It’s a national holiday here too
We live near London (1hr30mins on train) and my mother wanted me to go with her to see the coffin go past after the funeral, but she decided to watch on the TV - as they say 1 million will be travelling on the day
Sad occasion but it was going to happen sooner or later at 96.
I said to my mother that after the Duke died, the queen wouldn’t be far behind
Older couples from what I have seen don’t do well after one dies - and that was even the case with all the support the queen had as well

We sure love our holidays.
Only two for me as our premier is a dork. Really could have used tomorrow off. Exhausted.

I agree. The Queen represented all Canadians and we should all get that Monday off…not just the Feds.
