Canada Day is celebrated on July 1st across the country. July 1st marks the anniversary of the formation of the union of the British North America provinces in a federation under the name of Canada - that's the technical explanation, but Canada Day also means fireworks and the year's biggest national party. The Canada Day holiday is akin to the U.S. July 4th celebration but on a more Canadian scale.

SCHOOL http://www.ehow.com
Education in Canada is compulsory for children from 6 years old to at least 16 years old in the majority of Canadian provinces. In some provinces compulsory schooling starts at age five and in others it finishes at age 18. Generally, the standard of education in Canada is high. http://schools.tpsd.org/sch/Grade%20Level%20News.html The school day in elementary schools is usually from 8.30am to 3 or 3.30pm, with an hour for lunch. There are also usually two 15-minute breaks (recesses) to allow students to let off steam between classes (and to allow teachers to find the aspirin ). Lessons in public schools are held from Mondays to Fridays and there are no lessons on Saturdays or Sundays.

Christmas in Canada is celebrated in much the same way as it is in other Western countries. December 25th is the official holiday, with many people also taking time off on the afternoon of the 24th and Boxing Day on the 26th. Of course, Canada is a multicultural country, so many other holiday traditions aside from Christian ones are observed in December and throughout the year.
