Happy Canada Day!

Canada Day, formerly known as Dominion Day, is the national day of Canada. A federal statutory holiday, it celebrates the anniversary of Canadian Confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of the British North America Act, 1867, when the three separate colonies of the United Canadas, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united into a single dominion within the British Empire called Canada.

Originally called Dominion Day, the holiday was renamed in 1982, the same year that the Canadian constitution was patriated by the Canada Act, 1982, which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Canada Day celebrations take place throughout the country, as well as in various locations around the world attended by Canadians living abroad.

Queen Victoria’s Birthday, known as Victoria Day, was initially celebrated on May 24th, the actual date of her birth.

Following her passing in 1901, the holiday was officially designated as Victoria Day. In 1952, the observance was moved to the Monday before May 25th, allowing for a long weekend.

Happy Passover & Happy Easter

Passover (or Pesach in Hebrew), which began at sundown on Saturday, April 12, and ends after nightfall on Sunday, April 20, is a Jewish holiday commemorating the exodus of the Israelites from slavery. It’s a good time to acknowledge the significance of family and friends and to express gratitude for your freedom. Steeped in tradition, the celebration of Passover heralds deliverance and blessings.
