I'd like to point out that it is a bit confusing when it says “statutory holiday”, and they didn't explain to me in the first place that statutory holidays don't have any impact on the provinces. The question, as it was put to me about four days ago, is now becoming more confusing. I'll say this. The further you get away from war, the less people remember it. We are at a stage now where Victoria Day is insignificant. It's a nice holiday. Making it a holiday can diminish it, as opposed to a real Canadian belief that you have to get your butt down to the cenotaph, or you have to get the education system working properly to educate people about Canadian traditions and their history, which is much more important.
I am not sure that this statutory holiday business is going to solve that problem.
