Here are some interesting facts about Canada Day: 1. **Birth of a Nation**: Canada Day marks the anniversary of the confederation of Canada on July 1, 1867, when the British North America Act (now known as the Constitution Act) came into effect, uniting the colonies of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the Province of Canada (which became Ontario and Quebec). 2. **Originally Called Dominion Day**: The holiday was originally called Dominion Day until it was renamed Canada Day in 1982, following the passage of the Canada Act which gave Canada full sovereignty from the United Kingdom. 3. **Nationwide Celebrations**: Canada Day is celebrated with various events and activities across the country, including parades, fireworks, concerts, and barbecues. The largest celebration is held in Ottawa, the capital city, featuring performances, cultural displays, and a massive fireworks show.

🇨🇦 🇨🇦 On Monday, July 1st, Canadians will proudly celebrate their beloved Canada Day which honors the country's culture, heritage, and values. Wishing our Canadian colleagues and clients a wonderful Canada Day and long holiday weekend!    #CanadaDay #Canada #Canadians #OhCanada #LoveCanada #Canadian #FiorenteGlobal #MarketResearch #QualitativeResearch 🇨🇦

I just got back from a stunning trip to Kyrgyzstan!🇰🇬 It was peaceful and beautiful, and the people were so welcoming and helpful to tourists - even though there were some language barriers. This trip was extra special because it was my first time leading a tour as a manager & I made sure all our clients had a fantastic experience, and they did!✨ Also, I met one of my Emirati client in her 50s who loves adventure.😍 We created some unforgettable memories, and she shared some amazing life lessons with me that I'd like to pass on.💯 1. Cherish the people you love ❤️ - Life is unpredictable, and we can lose people through death, divorce, or just life taking different paths. Make the most of the time you have with them, especially parents. 2. Nothing is forever ⭐️ - Don't take things for granted, appreciate the good things in your life. 3. Focus on what matters ✅ - Don't waste energy on things that won't matter in the future. 4. Acceptance 🙌🏻 - You can't change people, so focus on what you can control. 5. Live your life😍 - She taught me a new term 'Vivir la vida loca' which means to live your life crazy✨ This trip was a reminder that the best experiences often come unexpectedly. #linkedinforcreators #lifelessons #travel #travelindustry

There is a common misconception that in India there are a lot of holidays, because we celebrate so many festivals. It may be true in PSUs, but in private sector we get only 10-11 days which is roughly the same as most countries. The holidays are spread over, so it makes it difficult to take long breaks without using your vacation days. India is the only country where we have public holidays for Christmas, Eid, Diwali, and Parsee new year. How many holidays you get at your work place, and which country you work in?
