Scheduling impact for Canada
Canada's public holidays vary by province. Quebec observes different holidays than Ontario or British Columbia. The February Family Day is observed in most but not all provinces, and under different names. For national operations, this creates scheduling complexity from coast to coast. The summer cluster (Canada Day, civic holidays) and fall (Thanksgiving, Remembrance Day) need particular attention.
