  • Canada Day?July 1
  • Victoria Day?Last Monday in May before May 24
  • Thanksgiving?Second Monday in October (the same day as the US holiday of Columbus Day)
  • Remembrance Day?November 11 (the same date celebrated as Armistice Day in many European countries and Veterans Day in the US)
  • Note also that Canada's Labour Day is not celebrated on May 1, as in much of the world, but on the first Monday in September—the same day as the US celebrates its Labor Day.
