Statutory Holidays

Published by Toronto Mike on November 8, 2004 @ 10:03 in My 2 Cents

I just received a couple of emails from co-workers based out of Vancouver indicating that they'll be taking November 11th off because it's a statutory holiday in British Columbia. MPs will have this whole week off to mark the Remembrance Day holiday. Because I work in Ontario, I'll be working Thursday.

Isn't it time we pay proper respect to Remembrance Day and grant it as a statutory holiday for all Canadians and not just those lucky enough to live in a province that recognizes it as such? It's the least we can do.
