Canadian Thanksgiving, the short answer is this.
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.
Thanks. That's really how it works here as well. There are the traditional turkey, etc., that you would expect to find in most cases, and then the particular family favorites-- often cultural favorites depending. Enjoy!It is sure is for me but my French Canadian friends enjoy both the same and other cultural dishes as would a lot of others. Pretty much turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie here generally. And always forget the dinner rolls in the oven!
