Thanksgiving.
Many of the trappings of Canadian Thanksgiving are similar to those of its U.S. counterpart, but the Canadian tradition belongs to the16th century, more than four decades before the historic 1621 gathering in Plymouth, Massachusetts that set American Thanksgiving into motion.Oct. 11, 2019.
Today is Thanksgiving in Canada.Thought some would be interested with the above.
Very few people know this.

Re: Thanksgiving.
Interesting Den, know of the USA one but never knew Canada had one, and well before USA.
That will not go down well with some in US, they do like to be at the top.
Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.
