When is Thanksgiving in Canada?

Canadian Thanksgiving is on the second Monday of October, a date set by proclamation in 1957. It is a statutory holiday in most provinces and territories, so many families hold dinner on the Saturday or Sunday and use Monday as a rest day.

Making the most of the long weekend

  • Book cottage stays and travel early, as it's one of the last warm-weather long weekends.
  • Fall colours often peak around this time in Ontario and Quebec.
  • Many stores close on the Monday, so shop for dinner before the weekend.
