This weekend in Canadaland, it's thanksgiving! We celebrate it much like the Americans, what with the delicious, delicious turkey and other such fine foods.Why do we celebrate it in October?
Because we're awesome.
Or, it could have began by the explorer, Martin Frobisher marking his homecoming from safely finding a northern passage to the Pacific Ocean, avoiding death which had befallen his predecessors. After which, the french settlers, having crossed the ocean and made it safely to Canada, held huge feasts of thanks from 1604 onwards.
(depictions of the french may be grossly exaggerated)So that's how Thanksgiving in Canada began!
A Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Here are also some sketches I've been doing in the last little while:
