I can's speak for everybody, but some have the same dinner at Christmas also..we have changed things somewhat over the years and have other things like roast beef, lamb, ham, etc..The first settling Canadians have derived their traditions from Britain, and France, for the most part, but over the years, anything goes, really..I like this classic meal at least once a year, but in a few months, come Xmas, I want something else..
badum, pshh!Is that done on a hill, or on level ground?
Happy Thanksgiving!
Yes we do! We call it Harvest Festival. Ok, its not that widespread anymore, and probably non-existant in urban areas, but out in the sticks (at least our parts) schools, churches and villages still celebrate the harvest, albeit in a more low key fashion than our cousins accross the Atlantic. Yesterday we held a harvest lunch in our village hall, followed by a church service for those who could still stagger up the hill and belt out "We plough the fields and scatter", very badly.
