하느님에 대한 감사: What’s different in Canada?

제출 11 ì›” 25, 2010 – 1:35 오후6 댓글

미국의 추수 감사절 기념, 캐나다 생활 잡지는 퀴즈를 올렸습니다: 어떻게 캐나다의 추수 감사절 절기 미국 Thanksgivings 다를?

I’ve found that the meals themselves are fairly similar터키, 소, 육수, 고구마, 넌출월귤 소스, 그리고 êµ­ê²½ 양쪽에 파이의 유예 휴가 테이블의 풍부한 ë°°ì—´ — 하지만, 캐나다 생활 문서 몇몇 작은 차이가 지적한.

나에게, 가장 큰 차이는 두 나라에있는 휴일의 상대적 중요성입니다: 추수 감사절은 국경의 큰 거래의 남쪽. 사람들은 확실히 캐나다에서 여기에 추수 감사절에 가족의 저녁 식사가 있나요, but there isn’t the mass travel frenzy you find in the States.

And I’m still adjusting to having our 10 ì›”, 터키의 축제!

ë„Œ ì–´ë•Œ, 동료 미국인 expats? 당신은 미국의 추수 감사절을 놓치지 마세요? 코멘트를 남겨 let us know how you’re celebrating the US turkey day.

    One major difference I’ve noted is that Americans tend to have their Thanksgiving meal on the Thursday evening, whereas Canadians have their meal anytime from Friday to Monday. I also find, in contras to what the magazine you cite suggests, that Canadian meals are nowhere near as monolithic as their American counterparts. Canadians tend to include local and ethnic specialities. My wife’s family always includes that delicious Prairie treat: the cabbage roll. I much prefer the Canadian celebration to the American one. While I miss seeing my family, I don’t miss the overshadowing of Thanksgiving by Christmas. Celebrating in October helps keep the holiday true to its roots as a harvest festival.

      Thanks for the comments, Dan. That’s true that there doesn’t seem to be a set day or time for the Thanksgiving meal in Canadajust some time during the Thanksgiving Day weekend. And I’ve never had cabbage rolls at Thanksgiving, but they sound delicious!

    As an American living in Canada, this is the one holiday that really saddens me that I am not able to celebrate in true U.S. style. It truly is my favorite holiday. It has nothing to do with the nearing of Christmas, or Black Friday shopping (which I have never experienced) – it was about the being with my family, 내 친구보기, playing and watching football, 멋진 뉴 잉글랜드 날씨, and of course the food.

    I struggled last Thursday as I watched my husband go off to work and put my children on the bus, 혼자 일 소요. This year is was a little bit harder because, we had parent/teacher conferences that night. No thanksgiving dinner.

    I’m thinking next year, I will keep the kids home.

      I feel the same wayThanksgiving is the one holiday that makes me feel homesick for my family and friends in the U.S. Some years we celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving, some years we make a Thanksgiving dinner during the weekend of American Thanksgiving (거의 추수 감사절 목요일에 있지만,, 당신이 지적으로 이후, it’s a school and work day), and some lucky years we celebrate both!

      Perhaps you could start a new Thanksgiving tradition for your family in Canada. Maybe it’s a good time to volunteer in your community? 우리의 보금 자리 http://www.livingabroadincanada.com/2009/11/25/american-thanksgiving-do-you-miss-it/ has links to resources for volunteers across Canada.

      오, 행복 추수 감사절에게!

    명백하게, I can’t compare but I have the feeling that Thanksgiving is a much bigger deal in the U.S.A. Maybe because it is also a synonym of Black Friday and OMG-Christmas-is-coming?

    • 캐롤린 B ì¡°. 난폭자 말합니다:

      I’m not sure why Thanksgiving is a much bigger deal in the U.S. 캐나다에 비해, but I do think it preceded the creation of the “검은 금요일” shopping day. American schoolkids spend a lot of time learning about the Pilgrims who first settled the U.S. east coast and the legend of the first Thanksgiving, so the Thanksgiving dinner has a certain mythology surrounding it. It’s a non-religious holiday, so its celebration isn’t limited to particular religious groups, but that’s true in Canada as well.

      If anyone else has any thoughts about the relative importance of Thanksgiving in the U.S. 캐나다, please chime in!
