Canada Day Holiday

In 2011 Canada Day is on July 1, Friday. In 2012 it's July 1, Sunday.

Probably half the country takes an extra day off to make the Canada Day long weekend a 4 day holiday, spend the day barbecuing or up at the cottage:)

Canada Day celebrates the birthday of Canada. On July 1, 1867 Canada became a new federation with its own constution by signing the Constitution Act (formerly known as the British North America Act).

Canada Day is a national statutory holiday celebrated in all provinces and territories and it is a day off for most businesses. There is, of course, a lot more to Canada Day but the purpose of this page is to give you a date and a brief history.
