About this countdown
This countdown targets Thanksgiving on Monday, October 11, 2027, set by the rule: Second Monday in October. It runs on your device's clock and counts to midnight at the start of the day.
Thanksgiving is a statutory holiday, so the date matters for more than the celebration — government offices close and many employers follow suit. Canadian Thanksgiving falls on the second Monday in October, six weeks before the US holiday. It is a statutory (paid) holiday in most provinces and territories, with banks, schools and government offices closed, though the four Atlantic provinces treat it as optinoal.
