Love the stats

The Stat holidays that is! (I have a terrible sense of humour)

There is a stat holiday (bank holiday to the Brits) EVERY MONTH in Saskatchewan*

January - New Year's Day
Feb - Family Day
March - Good Friday
May - Victoria Day or "Queen's Day" - To celebrate the British Queen
July - Canada Day
August - Saskatchewan Day
Sept - Labour Day
Oct - Thanksgiving
Nov - Remembrance Day - to commemorate WW1 and WW2, all we get is 2 minutes silence!!
Dec - Christmas Day

*Apart from April and June.

So, despite the poor holiday allowance that you get over here compared to the UK (15 days instead of about 21). You do end up getting a boat-load more bank holidays, hooray!

Plus, on occasions like Labour Day or Canada Day, Regina usually has a bigger market downtown, loads of amazing food trucks (see below) and there's sales in all the shops. Much better than at home, where everything shuts down and everyone ends up meandering around Tesco.
