== Canada has many awsome holidays! Canada has many of the same holidays as USA. However, it does have some uniqe holidays like Canada day (July 1st.), which is the national holiday in honor of the day when two British colonies (Nova Scotcia and New Brunswick) and the provinces of Canada were united. Now, that day is for picnics, fireworks, and BBQs. Canadians usually wear white and red on the day. Canadians also celebrate Thanksgiving in October, which is based on the harvest time and not on the pilgrims. Boxing day is a holiday after Christmas when people enjoy shopping.

 * The goverment in Canada is very important. The leader of the federal goverment is the prime minister, who is like the U.S. president but the prime minister isn't elected like the president is. How they elect: the party with the most seats wins and the leader of the party is prime minister. The **** Canadian law making body is called the parliament. It includes a 105- member senate and a 308- member house of commons. The house of commons debates and votes on bills. The prime minister selects the senate, while members of parliament (house of commons) are elected. The party with the most seats in the house of common wins the election and forms the goverment. The leader of the party becomes the prime minister. Each Canadian province also has a legislature with its own leader. The current Canadian Prime Minister is Stephen Harper, the leader of the Conservative Party. **** This is what the goverment is in canada. **====== ||
