Yes, Cdn Thanksgiving is in October - and I had enough Turkey to last me until Christmas :blush: ... So tomorrow is basically just another Thursday for most of us...

But all the Malls and Big Box stores started getting onboard with the Black Friday sales up here, - trying not to miss out on cross border and online shopping...

My kids when they were younger asked why their ( :usa: ) is different from ours . My answer was that most of the :usa: is much more south of us :canada: , so their growing season is longer and harvest is later than ours . We give thanks at the end of the season for what the land has given us "Thanksgiving"and say good by to our friends as we go into hibrrrrnation until spring .

Raised in Oklahoma and living in Ontario, our circle of friends include many families with blended country families. Since 1998 we have celebrated both with 2 other couples. This year is a first, celebrating in Oklahoma yesterday and Illinois on Thanksgiving. :canada: :usa: @DavidBarkey Your explanation of why Canada celebrities a month earlier is hilarious.
