Labour Thanksgiving Dayについて

Thanksgiving is a national holiday celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday of November and in Canada on the second Monday of October. It originated as a harvest festival and day of giving thanks for the blessings of the past year.

The American Thanksgiving tradition traces back to a 1621 celebration at Plymouth Colony, where Pilgrim settlers and Wampanoag Native Americans shared an autumn harvest feast. It became a national holiday in 1863 when President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed it during the Civil War.

Canadian Thanksgiving has similar harvest origins and was influenced partly by American traditions, though it is celebrated earlier in October when the harvest season ends in Canada's colder climate.
