Happy Thanksgiving, I didn't know you celebrated that as well. Good to know.

What prompts your thanksgiving day?

Looks like the same thing as American Thanksgiving! Their harvest is just sooner than ours because of the climate.

Thanksgiving, or Thanksgiving Day (Canadian French: Action de grâce), is an annual one-day holiday to give thanks for the things one has at the close of the harvest season. Some people thank God for this bounty.[1] The holiday is celebrated on the second Monday in October.
