Happy Thanksgiving, Canadians!
Unfortunately, it coincides with Columbus Day in the U.S. I have always had ambiguous feelings about Thanksgiving here (though I do love food), but I absolutely hate Columbus Day. Check out Reconsider Columbus Day, a grassroots project for changing a day that celebrates "the discovery of the Americas" into a day that celebrates indigenous people and to educate and bring awareness to their history, both past and living, and their cultures.
