Father's
Day in Canada...
Father's
Day is celebrated in Canada with
lot of enthusiasm and
fanfare on the third Sunday in June. People in Canada—just like they
do in the United States—wear roses to express gratitude for their
father. Traditionally, if the person is wearing a red rose, it
symbolizes
the person's father is alive. Likewise, a white rose means that the
person's father is no more.
Canadian
children honour and express
their affection for their father by giving them Father's Day
cards, flowers and chocolates, or other gifts.
Another Father's
Day trend that's celebration in Canada is that apart from their
biological father, people wish “Happy Father's Day” to their
grandfathers, stepfathers, foster father, uncles or any other man who
is as affectionate and loving towards them as a father.
Dining
out with family is another popular Fathers Day tradition in Canada. No
wonder that restaurants and eating establishments witness a bumper rush on
Father's Day.
"None
of you can
ever be proud enough of being the child of SUCH a Father who has not
his equal in this world-so great, so good, so faultless. Try, all of
you, to follow in his footsteps and don't be discouraged, for to be
really in everything like him none of you, I am sure, will ever be.
Try, therefore, to be like him in some points, and you will have
acquired a great deal."
— Victoria, Queen of England
Chalet
In-The-Woods Bed and Breakfast is an ideal destination to
treat
your Father or husband, by giving him a Gift Certificate which may be
redeemed when
it is convenient.
