Christmas HistoryChristmas in Canada celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, symbolizing goodwill, joy, and love. It is a particular time of the year marked by various customs that reflect the country's rich cultural diversity. Beyond attending church services and exchanging gifts, many Canadians indulge in charitable efforts, aligning with the deeper meaning of this Observance. Undoubtedly, Christmas in the Great White North is indeed a festival of unity and generosity. The origins of Christmas in Canada can be traced back to the early European settlers who brought their unique traditions to the new land. Over time, these customs have adapted and have been complemented by traditions from various immigrant communities. Significant to Canadians, outdoor activities such as attending Christmas parades, caroling, and tree-lighting ceremonies define the season. A uniquely Canadian custom is the children's belief in Santa Claus residing in the North Pole, Canada, resulting in thousands of letters sent annually through Canada Post. Christmas is observed nationwide, and there are several customs and traditions. Canadians decorate their homes with fairy lights, Christmas trees, and nativity scenes. Special meals with loved ones take place, often including traditional turkey, roast beef, or tourtière - a traditional meat pie. In certain parts of Canada, particularly in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, a unique tradition called 'Mummering' or 'Jannying' is followed during the twelve days of Christmas, where locals dress in disguises and visit homes in their community, bringing festive cheer. As per the universally accepted calendar, Christmas Day is celebrated each year on December 25th and is recognized as a public holiday across the country. Christmas facts
