Labour Day

                                                                                                                   
                                                         Week 34 (Save $34)




Labour Day is a statutory national holiday celebrated throughout Canada on the first Monday in September.  United States celebrates it's Labor Day on the same day. 

While some Labour Day parades and picnics are organized by unions, most Canadians simply regard Labour Day as the Monday of the last long weekend of summer.

Families with school-age children take it as the last chance to travel before the end of summer. Some teenagers and young adults view it as the last weekend for parties before returning to school, which traditionally begin their new year the day after.

I will not bore you with the history of the Labour movement but I will wish you a Happy and Safe long weekend! Enjoy!
