Whereas American Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, in Canada the second Monday of October is a statutory, or public, holiday. This year, Canadian Thanksgiving was on Monday, Oct 14, 2013. The Canadian Thanksgiving holiday is officially observed on the second Monday of October, however people generally get together for their Thanksgiving meal on any one of the three days of this three- day holiday weekend. Although Canadians do tend to get together on Thanksgiving weekend, the holiday is not as big a celebration in Canada as it is in the U.S., where Thanksgiving is the year's biggest holiday occasion. Nevertheless, Thanksgiving weekend is a popular time for Canadians to gather with family, so more people than usual are traveling on that weekend. In Quebec, Thanksgiving, or, action de grâce, is a bit different. Though celebrated by the English- speaking population in Quebec, French Canadians generally do not carry on with turkey and family get-togethers. Canada does not have a big shopping day after Thanksgiving the way the United States does. Boxing Day - December 26th - is the equivalent in terms of sales and shopping extravaganzas in Canada. The origins of Canadian Thanksgiving are more closely connected to the traditions of Europe than of the United States. Long before Europeans settled in North America, festivals of thanks and celebrations of harvest took place in Europe in the month of October. The very first Thanksgiving celebration in North America took place in Canada when Martin Frobisher, an explorer from England, arrived in Newfoundland in 1578. He wanted to give thanks for his safe arrival to the New World. That means the first Thanksgiving in Canada was celebrated 43 years before the pilgrims landed in Plymouth, Massachusetts! For a few hundred years, Thanksgiving was celebrated in either late October or early November, before it was declared a national holiday in 1879. It was then, that November 6th was set aside as the official Thanksgiving holiday. But then on January 31, 1957, Canadian Parliament announced that on the second Monday in October, Thanksgiving would be "a day of general thanksgiving to almighty God for the bountiful harvest with which Canada has been blessed." Thanksgiving was moved to the second Monday in October because after the World Wars, Remembrance Day (November 11th) and Thanksgiving kept falling in the same week. Another reason for Canadian Thanksgiving arriving earlier than its American counterpart is that Canada is geographically further north than the United States, causing the Canadian harvest season to arrive earlier than the American harvest season. And since Thanksgiving for Canadians is more about giving thanks for the harvest season than the arrival of pilgrims, it makes sense to celebrate the holiday in October. Both Canadians and Americans celebrate Thanksgiving with parades, family gatherings, pumpkin pie and a whole lot of turkey! Use the article “Thanksgiving in Canada” to answer the questions below. 1.

  • Quick History of the First Thanksgiving in Canada
    Thanksgiving Quick history of the first Thanksgiving in Canada THANKSGIVING DINNER Spectator file photo The first European Thanksgiving celebration in North America took place in Newfoundland when English explorer Martin Frobisher landed there in 1578 Hamilton Spectator The first European Thanksgiving celebration in North America took place in Newfoundland when English explorer Martin Frobisher landed there in 1578 in his quest for the Northwest Passage. He wanted to give thanks for his safe arrival in the New World. This was 42 years before the Pilgrims landed in what is now Plymouth, Mass. Although many Thanksgiving holidays were subsequently celebrated, it was not declared a national holiday until 1879. From 1921 to 1931, Armistice Day (later renamed Remembrance Day) and Thanksgiving were marked on the same date. The two events were then separated, but the timing of Thanksgiving varied. In 1957, the second Monday of October was set as the consistent date for Thanksgiving Day in Canada. In 2012, Canadians consumed 142 million kilograms (312.4 million pounds) of turkey or 4.1 kilograms (nine pounds) per capita. About 35 per cent of all whole turkeys purchased in Canada in 2012 were for Thanksgiving, but 44 per cent were bought at Christmas. So What? Christian Applications The Old Testament Lev 7:12 „If he offers it for a thanksgiving, then he shall offer, with the sacrifice of thanksgiving, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, unleavened wafers anointed with oil, or cakes of blended flour mixed with oil. Lev 7:13 „Besides the cakes, as his offering he shall offer leavened bread with the sacrifice of thanksgiving of his peace offering.

Harvest Ceremony BEYOND THE THANK~GIVING MYTH - a study guide ­ Harvest Ceremony BEYOND THE THANKSGIVING MYTH Summary: Native American people who first encountered the “pilgrims” at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts play a major role in the imagination of American people today. Contemporary celebrations of the Thanksgiving holiday focus on the idea that the “first Thanksgiving” was a friendly gathering of two disparate groups—or even neighbors—who shared a meal and lived harmoniously. In actuality, the assembly of these people had much more to do with political alliances, diplomacy, and an effort at rarely achieved, temporary peaceful coexistence. Although Native American people have always given thanks for the world around them, the Thanksgiving celebrated today is more a combination of Puritan religious practices and the European festival called Harvest Home, which then grew to encompass Native foods. The First People families, but a woman could inherit the position if there was no male heir. A sachem could be usurped by In 1620, the area from Narragansett Bay someone belonging to a sachem family who was able in eastern Rhode Island to the Atlantic Ocean in to garner the allegiance of enough people.

  • Myths of Thanksgiving Debunked
    Myths of Thanksgiving Debunked Myth #1: "The First Thanksgiving" occurred in 1621. Fact: No one knows when the "first" thanksgiving occurred. People have been giving thanks for as long as people have existed. Indigenous nations all over the world have celebrations of the harvest that come from very old traditions; for Native peoples, thanksgiving comes not once a year, but every day, for all the gifts of life. To refer to the harvest feast of 1621 as "The First Thanksgiving" disappears Indian peoples in the eyes of non-Native children. Myth #2: The people who came across the ocean on the Mayflower were called Pilgrims. Fact: The Plymouth settlers did not refer to themselves as "Pilgrims." Pilgrims are people who travel for religious reasons, such as Muslims who make a pilgrimage to Mecca. Most of those who arrived here from England were religious dissidents who had broken away from the Church of England. They called themselves "Saints"; others called them "Separatists." Some of the settlers were "Puritans," dissidents but not separatists who wanted to "purify" the Church. It wasn't until around the time of the American Revolution that the name "Pilgrims" came to be associated with the Plymouth settlers, and the "Pilgrims" became the symbol of American morality and Christian faith, fortitude, and family. (1) Myth #3: The colonists came seeking freedom of religion in a new land. Fact: The colonists were not just innocent refugees from religious persecution. By 1620, hundreds of Native people had already been to England and back, most as captives; so the Plymouth colonists knew full well that the land they were settling on was inhabited.

Metropolitan Museum of Art Neiv York • 1942 COPYRIGHT BY THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART SEPTEMBER 1942 ^ 3 2 CD %<-. '6« Thanksgiving and Harvest Festivals HARVEST FESTIVALS to celebrate the gathering in of the year's grain, with rites in honor of a deity of fruitfulness, are among the most an­ cient of human customs. The Greek worship of Demeter, goddess of grain, and the Hebrew celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles, or In­ gathering, are outstanding examples. The worship of Demeter and her daughter Persephone the Maiden was built about the theme of "seed time and harvest!' and tne Greeks' artistic genius recorded the story in painting and sculpture as well as in poetry and legend. Wherever grain was cut and threshed in ancient Greece, Demeter was honored, but the center of her worship was at Eleusis. Here, ac­ cording to legend, she had rested and been welcomed kindly on her search for Persephone, who, lost in the Underworld, symbolized the seed grain covered by the earth. In gratitude the goddess gave the king's son, Triptolemos, her sacred gift of grain, and a chariot drawn by winged dragons in which he could carry this gift throughout the land. And after Triptolemos became king himself he established Demeter's worship at Eleusis. These Mysteries at Eleusis, held early in October, were both the most sacred rites of Demeter and her greatest festival. Besides Demeter, Persephone and Iacchos (who was Dionysos, god of wine and vintage, by another name) were honored at this festival.

  • Thanksgiving Trivia Questions and Answers From: Conversationstartersworld.Com/Thanksgiving-Trivia-Questions
    Thanksgiving trivia questions and answers From: conversationstartersworld.com/thanksgiving-trivia-questions There are many countries and cultures that have a Thanksgiving holiday or celebrations based around giving thanks. But this set of trivia questions will focus mostly on Thanksgiving in the United States. Although there is a section at the end for trivia about Thanksgiving celebrations around the world. History of Thanksgiving in the USA What year was the celebration that is most commonly attributed as the first Thanksgiving? 1621 This is the celebration that people most often talk about when they are talking about the “first” Thanksgiving. But there are others that are claimed to be the first Thanksgiving. There was another celebration in Plymouth in 1623 and one in Boston in 1631 that people claim was the actual first Thanksgiving. In reality there were lots of Thanksgiving celebrations in North America before 1621 as well because days of Thanksgiving were often celebrated after good events that were deemed to have the hand of God behind them. How long did the first Thanksgiving celebration last? 3 Days It was celebrated much earlier than our current celebration, possibly in late September. There were about 50 European settlers and around 90 native Americans who attended the 3-day feast. When the religious group that would later be known as the Pilgrims left England to practice their religion freely, where did they go? Leiden, Holland Unlike the Puritans, the Pilgrims believed that they couldn’t practice their religion within the English state church. This led to fines and sometimes imprisonment. To escape persecution, they fled to Leiden, Holland.

Their leadership came from the religious congregations of Brownist English Dissenters who had fled the volatile political environment in the East Midlands of England for the relative calm and tolerance of Holland in the Netherlands. Concerned with losing their cultural identity, the group later arranged with English investors to establish a new colony in North America. The colony, established in 1620, became the second successful English settlement (after the founding of Jamestown, Virginia, in 1607) and later the oldest continuously inhabited British settlement in what was to become the United States of America. The Pilgrims' story of seeking religious freedom has become a central theme of the history and culture of the United States. History Separatists in Scrooby The core of the group that would come to be known as the Pilgrims were brought together by a common belief in the ideas promoted by Richard Clyfton, a Brownist parson at All Saints' Parish Church in Babworth, Nottinghamshire, between 1586 and 1605.
