Happy Canadian Thanksgiving

The second Monday in October is when the Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving. Similar to the football/shopping holiday that the U.S. Thanksgiving has become, the Canadian Thanksgiving version has a football doubleheader:

Hamilton at Montreal 1 p.m. ET
Saskatchewan at Calgary 4 p.m. ET

If you live near the Canadian border, both games are available on CBC.

The shopping part has been heightened due to bargains on the U.S. side. The strength of the Canadian dollar (now even above the U.S. dollar) has made the U.S. an ideal shopping place for Canadians.

For those in believe in more than just football and shopping, have a Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving.
