Yes, even in Canada, Thanksgiving is one of the three "turkey days" along with
Christmas and Easter.
Where American practice views Thanksgiving as the beginning of
the holiday season (as in "happy holidays"), however, Canadian practice
continues to associate Thanksgiving with the bounties of the harvest.
