Americans invented Thanksgiving.
Canada has Thanksgiving on the 1st Monday of Oct., which makes sense since that is harvest time in most of Canada.
American Loyalists brought the tradition up to Canada after the war of 1812. Sorry about the old White House.

The UK does not celebrate Thanksgiving, although I think some are jealous of it. (I would be)

It’s only been in the last few years that we have had Black Friday.
Canada, and Britain have adopted the USA Black Friday, on the fourth Friday of Nov.
I am so sick the the words “Black Friday”, I could SCREAM, but that would be rude, so I won’t.

Robert, didn’t you know we have massive crock pots in Canada? Kids are so tough, and it takes time to tenderize.
