For most families that means a long weekend, a roast turkey, and pumpkin pie.<\/p>\n\n<p>But the oldest story Canada tells about this holiday has no turkey in it. No pumpkin. No harvest of any kind.<\/p>\n\n<p>It has fifteen wooden ships, a storm, and a sea full of ice. And it has a sermon with a second half that almost nobody quotes. That second half may be the best part of the whole story.<\/p>\n\n<h2>When Is Canadian Thanksgiving in 2026?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Canadian Thanksgiving is always the second Monday in October. In 2026 that is October 12. Many families eat the big meal on the Sunday, which leaves the Monday free for rest, a walk, or the long drive home.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you are not Canadian, here is the short version. Thanksgiving is a day set aside to stop and say thank you for the year, most often around a shared meal. The United States has one too, on the fourth Thursday of November. Canada&#8217;s comes more than six weeks earlier.<\/p>\n\n<p>The date was not always fixed. According to The Canadian Encyclopedia:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>The first yearly Thanksgiving in Canada was held on November 6, 1879. After that, Parliament picked a new date each year. It landed as late as December 6.<\/li>\n<li>Starting in 1921, Thanksgiving shared a day with Armistice Day, the day for remembering soldiers, in the week of November 11. In 1931 the two were split apart.<\/li>\n<li>On January 31, 1957, Parliament settled it for good: the second Monday in October, &#8220;a day of General Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the bountiful harvest with which Canada has been blessed.&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Why October? The usual answer is that winter comes early in Canada, so the harvest does too. But there was another pull. A former premier of Ontario, a farmer named E.C. Drury, later grumbled that &#8220;the farmers&#8217; own holiday has been stolen by the towns,&#8221; which wanted a long weekend while the weather was still good.<\/p>\n\n<p>Thanksgiving is a public holiday in most of the country. The Canadian Encyclopedia lists three provinces where it is not an official day off: Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. In Quebec it is called <em>Action de gr\u00e2ce<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"convertkit-form wp-block-convertkit-form\" style=\"\"><script async data-uid=\"6491fb8269\" src=\"https:\/\/bgodinspired.kit.com\/6491fb8269\/index.js\" data-jetpack-boost=\"ignore\" data-no-defer=\"1\" data-no-optimize=\"1\" nowprocket><\/script><\/div>\n\n\n<h2>The First Canadian Thanksgiving Had No Harvest<\/h2>\n\n<p>Now go back almost 450 years, to the story Canadians often call the first Thanksgiving in North America.<\/p>\n\n<p>In May 1578, an English sea captain named Martin Frobisher left England with 15 ships and more than 400 men. They were headed for the far north, to a bay on Baffin Island in what is now the Canadian territory of Nunavut.<\/p>\n\n<p>They were not going to farm. They were going for rock. Frobisher had brought stone home from two earlier trips, and his backers believed it held gold. This time the plan was bigger. A hundred men would stay behind and live through the Arctic winter in a house carried over the ocean in pieces.<\/p>\n\n<p>Then they met the ice.<\/p>\n\n<p>At the start of July, the ships pushed into the mouth of the bay, and a storm hit that night. A sailor named Thomas Ellis was there and wrote down what he saw. The ice closed in around them, he said, until they could see &#8220;neither land nor sea.&#8221; (The spelling in these old quotes has been updated so they are easier to read.)<\/p>\n\n<p>One small ship, the <em>Dennis<\/em>, was battered by the ice and sank in sight of the whole fleet. The other crews sent out their boats and saved every man. Ellis wrote that &#8220;not one perished.&#8221; But the ship went down with much of the winter house on board.<\/p>\n\n<p>The rest fought all night. Ellis describes men cutting up their own ropes to hang over the sides as padding. Some pushed the ice away with oars. Some used planks two inches thick (about 5 cm), which &#8220;were broken immediately.&#8221; Some climbed out onto the ice and shoved it back with their shoulders. He says they spent the night &#8220;looking for instant death.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p>Morning came and the wind dropped. But the trouble was not over. Fog sat on the fleet for two weeks. On July 26, Ellis wrote, snow lay a foot deep (about 30 cm) on the decks and &#8220;froze as fast as it fell.&#8221; Ships lost sight of each other. Two of them had been missing for nearly a month. George Best, an officer on the voyage, wrote that every man had given them up for good.<\/p>\n\n<p>At the very end of July, Frobisher&#8217;s own ship finally reached the harbour. (Ellis says it was the 30th. Best says the 31st.) Even then, right at the entrance, a block of ice drove the ship&#8217;s anchor through its own bow, and the crew only just kept it from sinking.<\/p>\n\n<p>And there, at anchor, sat the two missing ships.<\/p>\n\n<p>Best wrote down what happened next. The crews fired their big guns to greet each other. They traded stories of what they had been through. Then, he says, they went down &#8220;altogether upon their knees&#8221; and gave thanks. The fleet&#8217;s chaplain, Robert Wolfall, stood up and preached, &#8220;exhorting them especially to be thankful to God for their strange and miraculous deliverance in those so dangerous places.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p>That was it. That was the thanksgiving. No crop had come in. Nothing had been won. They had lost a ship and their winter house. They were thankful because they were still alive, and because friends they had counted as dead were right there in front of them.<\/p>\n\n<h2>What the Popular Version Gets Wrong<\/h2>\n\n<p>This story gets told every October, and it usually gets told a little wrong. Going back to the accounts written by men who were there turns up a few surprises.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The famous words are often credited to the wrong man.<\/strong> The line about &#8220;strange and miraculous deliverance&#8221; is often pinned on Richard Collinson. Collinson was a British admiral who edited a reprint of the voyage records in 1867, almost 300 years later. The words were written by George Best, who was on the voyage and published his account in 1578.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The thanks and the church service were two events.<\/strong> Many versions say the crews gave thanks and shared Communion, the Christian meal of bread and wine, at the same time. Best puts the Communion later, on shore, at a place the sailors called Winter&#8217;s Furnace. He adds that Wolfall had to hold services on one ship after another, &#8220;because the whole company could never meet together at any one place.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><strong>The famous menu is missing from the eyewitness accounts.<\/strong> You will often read that the men feasted on salt beef, biscuits and mushy peas. Peas were certainly on board, because Best lists barrels of them among the supplies. But neither Best nor Ellis mentions a meal on the day of the reunion. They mention guns, stories, knees and a sermon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>&#8220;First&#8221; needs a footnote.<\/strong> Indigenous peoples across North America held feasts to mark the autumn harvest long before any European ship arrived. Spanish explorers held church services of thanks further south earlier in the 1500s. And the bay Frobisher sailed into was already home to Inuit, who were treated badly by his expeditions. The Canadian Encyclopedia records that Inuit taken to England as captives on his first two voyages soon died there.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>One more thing is worth knowing. Today&#8217;s holiday does not come straight down from 1578. The Canadian Encyclopedia traces the turkey-and-pumpkin meal to Nova Scotia in the 1750s, and the yearly national holiday to the 1800s. It also notes that some people argue Frobisher&#8217;s service was not a &#8220;real&#8221; Thanksgiving at all, because there was no harvest in it.<\/p>\n\n<p>And the gold? There was none. The ships carried home about 1,350 tonnes of rock, and it turned out to hold no precious metal. The winter colony never happened. Before leaving, Best says, the men planted peas and grain in the thin soil, to see what would grow by the next year. Frobisher never came back to look.<\/p>\n\n<p>So strip the story down. No gold. No colony. No harvest. What is left is a crowd of cold, tired men on their knees, glad to be alive. Somehow that is the part that lasted.<\/p>\n\n<h2>The Half of the Sermon Nobody Quotes<\/h2>\n\n<p>Here is the detail that is easy to read past. The famous quote stops in the middle of a sentence.<\/p>\n\n<p>Best keeps going. Wolfall also reminded the men of &#8220;the uncertainty of man&#8217;s life.&#8221; Then he told them to be &#8220;always ready as resolute men to enjoy and accept thankfully whatsoever adventure&#8221; was sent to them next.<\/p>\n\n<p>Think about who he was saying that to. These men were not home. They were still at the top of the world, with ice in the bay and a whole ocean left to cross. He was not only saying <em>be thankful you made it<\/em>. He was saying <em>be ready to be thankful for whatever comes next<\/em>, before anyone knew what that would be.<\/p>\n\n<p>Wolfall had some right to say it. Best tells us the chaplain had left &#8220;a good and large living&#8221; in England, along with a wife and children, to make the trip. He had agreed to stay the whole winter if the colony went ahead.<\/p>\n\n<p>So Canadian Thanksgiving carries two kinds of thanks. The 1957 wording is thanks for plenty: a bountiful harvest. The 1578 story is thanks for getting through. Most of us are good at the first kind. The second kind is harder, and some years it is the only kind on offer.<\/p>\n\n<p>If you are curious what being thankful does to a person, we looked at <a href=\"https:\/\/bgodinspired.com\/index.php\/bible-resources\/bible-and-science\/gratitude-brain-chemistry-anxiety-philippians-4-6\/\">what the research says gratitude does in the brain<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Glad Because It Is Quiet<\/h2>\n\n<p>There is a very old song about sailors. It was already ancient when Wolfall was born, and as a chaplain he would almost certainly have known it well.<\/p>\n\n<p>It tells of people who go out to sea in ships to do their work. A storm lifts the waves. Their courage melts. They stagger around the deck and run out of ideas. So they cry out to God, and the storm goes still.<\/p>\n\n<p>Then comes the line that fits 1578 so well. The song says they are glad because it is quiet. And it says they are brought to the harbour they had been longing for.<\/p>\n\n<p>Notice what the sailors in the song are glad about. Not treasure. Not a good season. The song never says whether the trip made any money. They are glad the water is still. They are glad to be in port. Best reaches for the same picture when Frobisher finally gets in. He calls the harbour his &#8220;long wished port.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n<p>That is a kind of thanks a person can give with empty hands. It does not need a full table. It only needs a storm that ended, and someone to say thank you to.<\/p>\n\n<p><em>A good place to start:<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/bgodinspired.com\/index.php\/free-video-course-feeling-gods-presence\/?utm_source=wordpress&amp;utm_medium=article-inline&amp;utm_content=hero\"><strong>The Beginner&#8217;s Guide to Feeling God&#8217;s Presence Every Day<\/strong><\/a>.

If so, enjoy every bite on October 12.<\/p>\n\n<p>But maybe this was the year of the lost job, the bad news from the doctor, or the empty chair at the table. If so, this holiday still has room for you. The oldest Thanksgiving story Canada tells is not about people who had plenty. It is about people who had come through.<\/p>\n\n<p>Here is a simple thing to try, and it costs nothing. At most tables someone asks, &#8220;What are you thankful for?&#8221; This year, add the 1578 version: &#8220;What did we come through this year?&#8221; Let each person name one thing. In a hard year, that one can be easier to answer honestly.<\/p>\n\n<p>If this year tested you, it can also help to see how you tend to handle hard seasons. Our free <a href=\"https:\/\/bgodinspired.com\/index.php\/how-resilient-am-i\/\">How Resilient Am I?<\/a> check is a short place to begin.<\/p>\n\n<p>People have always prized calm after rough water. The old phrase &#8220;halcyon days&#8221; is about the same thing, and it <a href=\"https:\/\/bgodinspired.com\/index.php\/nature-and-creation\/halcyon-days-meaning\/\">began as a story about calm arriving in the middle of winter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>So happy Thanksgiving, Canada. Whether your table is full this year or your hands feel empty, there is an old way to keep this day that still works. Look back at the ice. Count who is still standing next to you. And be glad, for a moment, that it is quiet.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Discussion Question<\/h2>\n\n<p>Which is harder: being thankful in a good year, when it is easy to take things for granted, or being thankful in a hard year, when there seems to be less to count?

Canadian Thanksgiving is held on the second Monday in October every year, a date fixed by Canada&#8217;s Parliament on January 31, 1957. Many Canadian families hold their main Thanksgiving meal on the Sunday of the long weekend rather than on the Monday itself.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Why is Canadian Thanksgiving in October instead of November?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Canadian Thanksgiving is in October because Parliament fixed it on the second Monday in October in 1957, after decades of moving the date. The usual explanation is that winter and the harvest both come earlier in Canada than in the United States. The date had moved many times before that. The first yearly Canadian Thanksgiving was on November 6, 1879, and from 1921 the holiday shared a day with Armistice Day in November until the two were separated in 1931.<\/p>\n\n<h3>What was the first Thanksgiving in Canada?<\/h3>\n\n<p>The event most often called the first Thanksgiving in Canada took place in 1578 in what is now Nunavut. The crews of the English explorer Martin Frobisher gave thanks after surviving storms and sea ice that sank one of their ships, and their chaplain, Robert Wolfall, preached a sermon of thanks. There was no harvest involved. The claim to be &#8220;first&#8221; is debated, because Indigenous peoples held harvest feasts long before 1578 and Spanish explorers held services of thanks further south earlier in the 1500s.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Is Canadian Thanksgiving a public holiday in every province?<\/h3>\n\n<p>No. According to The Canadian Encyclopedia, Canadian Thanksgiving is an official statutory holiday in every province and territory except Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. In Quebec the holiday is called Action de gr\u00e2ce and is celebrated less widely than in the rest of Canada.<\/p>\n\n<h3>How is Canadian Thanksgiving different from American Thanksgiving?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Canadian Thanksgiving is on the second Monday in October, while American Thanksgiving is on the fourth Thursday in November. In 2026 that means October 12 in Canada and November 26 in the United States. The origin stories differ as well. The American story most often told is the Pilgrims&#8217; harvest celebration of 1621 in Massachusetts. The Canadian story most often told is Martin Frobisher&#8217;s crews giving thanks in the Arctic in 1578 for surviving the ice. Both holidays today centre on a shared meal, usually with turkey and pumpkin pie.<\/p>\n\n<p><em>Sources: The Canadian Encyclopedia on <a
