Thanksgiving Description
Celebrated on the second Monday of October, Canadians give thanks for the harvest and blessings of the past year. Unlike the American version, Canadian Thanksgiving aligns closer with the actual harvest season and has a quieter, less commercialized character. Roast turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie, and cranberry sauce form the traditional feast. Families travel across provinces to gather for dinner. Autumn foliage in Ontario and Quebec provides a stunning backdrop for long weekend road trips.
