2015 Canada Calendar & Holidays
Canada observes 32 public holidays in 2015. These holidays include national celebrations, religious observances, and important commemorative days that are significant to the culture and history of Canada. Public holidays typically mean government offices, banks, and many businesses are closed.
Understanding Canada Holidays
Public Holidays
Public holidays in Canada are days when most workers are entitled to a day off with pay. Government offices, schools, and many businesses close on these days.
Bank Holidays
Bank holidays are days when financial institutions are closed. While similar to public holidays, not all workers may have the day off.
Observances
Observances are notable days that are not official public holidays. Businesses and schools typically remain open on these days.
Regional Holidays
Some holidays may only be observed in certain regions or states within Canada. Check local regulations for specific regional holidays.
Planning Around Canada Holidays in 2015
When planning travel or business activities in Canada, be aware that public holidays may affect availability of services, transportation schedules, and business operations. Consider booking accommodations and transportation in advance around major holidays, as these are popular times for domestic travel and celebrations.
