Origin of Labour Day in Canada<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Labour Day, the first Monday in September, has been a statutory holiday in Canada since 1894. It originated in the first workers\u2019 rallies of the Victorian era. Historically, workers marked the day with various activities. These included parades, speeches, games, amateur competitions and picnics. The holiday promoted working-class solidarity and belonging during a time of rapid industrialization. Since the Second World War, fewer and fewer people have participated in Labour Day activities. Nevertheless, it remains a statutory holiday. Many Canadians now devote the Labour Day holiday to leisure activity and family time.(Source: The Canadian Encyclopedia<\/a>) <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
