Thanksgiving
Day is a national holiday
celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as a day of giving thanks
for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Several other places
around the world observe similar celebrations.
It is

second Monday of October in Canada.
Thanksgiving
has its historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, and has long
been celebrated in a secular manner as well.
Today, it is celebrated colorfully all over US, almost like Christmas.
Happy Thanksgiving Day to US and all Nigerians and Africans living in the States. Have a good celebration.
