Thanksgiving Day Wallpapers

The French settlers in the area typically had feasts at the end of the harvest season and continued throughout the winter season, even sharing food with the indigenous peoples of the area.

As settlers arrived in Canada from New England, late autumn Thanksgiving celebrations became commonplace.

New immigrants into the country—such as the Irish, Scottish, and Germans—also added their own traditions to the harvest celebrations.

Most of the US aspects of Thanksgiving (such as the turkey), were incorporated when United Empire Loyalists began to flee from the United States during the American Revolution and settled in Canada.
