                          About Public Holidays in Canada

                          Canada's holiday calendar varies significantly by province: Family Day (mid-February) is observed in most provinces but not all, and each province adds its own August Civic Holiday under a different local name (Simcoe Day in Toronto, Heritage Day in Alberta). Canada Day (July 1) marks the 1867 Confederation, while National Day for Truth and Reconciliation (September 30), added in 2021, is a newer federal holiday honoring residential school survivors and is not yet observed as a statutory holiday in every province.
